Ah, look at that! In some other projects, flake8 complains about a docstring whose first line doesn't end in a period, so I didn't think it'd be possible. If you don't think that's excessively verbose, there'll be a patch in shortly. Thanks! Why do you say "the default security group" isn't actually a security > group?

But "the default security group," as referenced by the help text for these commands, is actually a sort of meta-security-group object that is only used to populate the 'default' security group in new tenants. It is not, in and of itself, an actual security group. That is, adding a new rule with 'nova secgroup-add-default-rules' has absolutely no effect on what network traffic is allowed between guests; it only affects new tenants created afterwards. -- Chris St. Pierre
