The proof-of-concept hacking progressed to the point where I was able to
use the "hacked up" version of the ML2 OVS driver to trigger a test
plug/unplug script, achieving connectiving with a test VM. With the
exception of some boneheaded assumptions, things went reasonably well. I
will squash the commits and post WIP patches on gerrit tomorrow.

In my opinion, the big question now is what to do about rootwrap. The
current proof-of-concept does *not* use it because of the
sudo-stripping-environment variable issue. Environment variables can be
passed in on the command line and the 'Env' rootwrap filter employed,
but I don't know what is more workable from a deployment/3rd party
integration point of view: use rootwrap and require rootwrap filters be
added at deploy time; or don't use rootwrap from within nova and leave
it up to the plug script/executable. If rootwrap isn't used when
executing the plug script, the plug script itself could still use
rootwrap. Thoughts?

Cheers,

Brent
