> org.jclouds.compute.domain.Image has "name" and "description" properties.
> "name" is Nullable but "description" isn't. This seems to be a little
> inconsistent, why should an Image description String be so strict about its
> contents if the name is completely ambivalent?
> While this seems to be a pretty trivial matter the "openstack-nova" provider
> has no concept of an Image description, only a name. This is worked around by
> assigning the "openstack-nova" name to both the JClouds Image name and
> description. I'm experiencing an issue when the "openstack-nova" has a null
> name and tries to assign it to the currently NOT nullable description.
> I hope this makes sense :)
