Hi Gabe,

There has been a lot of discussion about this, along with zone naming,
structure, and so forth. I was propsing we not only make it part of
Nova, but suggest all projects use the same locality zone names/tags
to ensure cross-project locality.

So, "yes", and don't make it nova-specific. :)

I am trying to figure out if this is generically useful, or something that should be outside of core.  The idea is that if you don't specify an affinity ID one will get returned to you when you create the server, and you can use that ID to add additional servers in close proximity to the first.
