The packages do enough to get the services running.

The goal of the Ubuntu OpenStack packages to make it easily deploy in large
environments either using juju (preferred option ;),  puppet, or chef. In
order to do this we keep the packaging simple and let the service
deployment/configuration management tool to do the setup of OpenStack based
on their environment.

That being said we think that keystone users and endpoints should not be
managed by debconf since most users who deploy at a large scale will not
use them in their deployments.
