I'm looking to implement this db change for keystone too, so maybe it
would make sense to have generalized db setup script in
openstack-common package?
Mark, you're working on that upstream, right? Would that package be a
right place for such common scripts or is it for Python modules only?
The quantum plugins use MySQL and would probably make use of this as
well. For essex, I expect each plugin to be a separate openstack-quantum
sub-package, or more likely a pair of them in order to keep the
config/dbsetup/etc stuff separate from the python modules.
