I agree I'd like to avoid an extra HTTP call to allocate IP's
(specifically for nova vm creation). I would expect that a plugin would
allocate an ip to a port if there is a subnet associated with the
network the port is on. Adding additional ips past that 1st auto
allocated would require a post to /ips. But the method of operation is
really up to plugin vendors.

Happy Hacking!
