Right. We do need to be more responsive. The main reason we took our time was 
that these tests are used for the ceph nightly qa tests, and any changes in 
these that exposes new incompatibility will fail these. We'd rather first have 
the issue fixed, then merge the change. An alternative way to doing it is to 
open a ceph tracker issue about the incompatibility, mark the test as 
'fails_on_rgw', in which case we could merge it immediately.

Not sure what's the appropriate way to attack this one. Maybe the create_bucket 
function could keep a list of created buckets and then remove them if 
encountering this error using lru.

We'd be happy with more tests, and with more features tested even if these 
weren't implemented yet. It can later help with the development of these 
features. E.g., I looked a few weeks back at v4 signatures, and having such a 
test would have helped. The only thing we need though would be a way to easily 
disable such tests. So adding 'fails_on_rgw', or some other way to detect would 
help a lot.

Thanks,
Yehuda
