Free advice: whatever reason you have for not enabling trusts, storing
user passwords in the Heat database is 100x worse.
The issues what you pointed are correct(e.g. user_domain_id), we don't
use the domain well and also added some patches to skip those issues.
Why aren't those upstream?
But I guess that the majority of heat users already moved to trusts and
it is obviously better solution in terms of security and granular role
control.
As the edge case(perhaps), if a user want to take password auth, it
would be too tricky for them to introduce it, therefore I agree your 2nd
option.
If we will remove the `deferred_auth_method=password` from heat.conf,
should we keep `deferred_auth_method` self or will replace it to a new
config option just to specify the trusts enable/disable ? Do you have
any idea on this?
Also I'm thinking that `reauthentication_method` also might be
changed/merged ?

I'm not sure whether this works with keystone v2 and anyone is using
it or not. Keeping in mind that heat-cli is deprecated and keystone
v3 is now the default, we've 2 options
1. Continue to support 'deferred_auth_method=passsword' option and
fix all the above issues.
2. Remove/deprecate the option in pike itlsef.
I would prefer option 2, but probably I miss some history and use
cases for it.
Am I right in thinking that any user (i.e. not just the [heat] service
user) can create a trust? I still see occasional requests about
'standalone mode' for clouds that don't have Heat available to users
(which I suspect is broken, otherwise people wouldn't be asking), and
I'm guessing that standalone mode has heretofore required
deferred_auth_method=password.
So if we're going to remove the option then we should probably either
officially disown standalone mode or rewrite the instructions such that
it can be used with the trusts method.
cheers,
Zane.
