The normal tenant will see the external network if it is shared so the are allowed to get floating ips

Tenants should have no visibility into the 'type' of networks they create, and are in fact limited to particular network types and IDs that are specified in the plugin configuration file or ml2_conf.ini.  I believe the configuration options are 'tenant_network_type' and 'network_vlan_ranges'. That is why you do not see the provider attributes as the tenant, even though they technically exist for ALL networks, regardless of who created them.
