So I think this is something we really should get agreement on across
the open stack API first before flipping back and forth on a case by

Personally I think we should be using uuids for uniqueness and leave any
extra restrictions to a ui layer if really required. If we try to have
name uniqueness then "test " should be considered the same as " test" as
" test " and it introduces all sorts of slightly different combos that
look the same except under very close comparison. Add unicode for extra fun.
Leaving such uniqueness validation to the UI layer is a *huge no-no*.
The problem I had in production occurred in a non-UI system.
Please consider making it great for all users, not just the one
(Horizon) provided by OpenStack.
