Well there could be the potential for load balancing as a possibility,
but the main reason is that eventually I will be having at least 3 VMs
in openstack running independent installations of Tryton--one in each
tenant, but my available public IP addresses are limited such that I do
not have enough to spare one dedicated to each.

With NGINX or Apache or lighttpd or whatever in front, on a VM that has
one public IP and access to each of the private VLANs, permits
accessibility to all the Tryton installs thorugh one IP address using
proxy-pass to connect up with the right host in the private networks.

I may eventually migrate towards a VPN-based solution--especially if
this situation does not work, but then I have to put not only he tryton
client on remote machines but also openVPN client and config and
instructions on how to connect the VPN before opening Tryton.  This is
do-able but may intimidate some of the users.
