I'm working on the distributed scheduler
(https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/distributed-scheduler), which is
the first step in adding the sort of host selection across a complex
installation. Sandy Walsh has added the ability for individual hosts to report
their capabilities up through the zone hierarchy, where they can be aggregated
for more efficient request routing. This will provide the basis for a much more
robust means of specifying a host than just "availability zone", which will
probably become just one of many potential attributes that one can select for.
