--------------------------------------
Yeah, I view that as part of the implementation of the abstraction.

> Right now, we don't have an abstraction for dealing with security
> groups/firewalls across various compute APIs. As a result, code that needs to
> deal with said security groups/firewalls has to have implementations for each
> cloud it supports, which is...a pain, to say the least. While not all clouds
> have support for security groups or a similar concept, many do (at the very
> least, EC2, Nova and CloudStack all do, and CloudStack in fact has two
> different implementations depending on the network type), and this seems to
> be standard enough to merit a generic interface in the base ComputeService.
