Actually it is the name field that we really do not need, nor want.
Its continued existence is mostly driven by a desire by deployers to
brand their services, nothing should currently be using to as a
selector.  The type field is what (should be) used in places like the
base URL for services under a combined endpoint (ie,
host/compute/v2.1/...) on a single port.  For any alternate
implementations of a service that a deployer wants to take the place
of an OpenStack service this is how that is done seamlessly, no lying
about the name like the browser User-Agent header nonsense.
