Non-unique display names in Nova

 

Is there a reason there isn't a unique contraint on display_names per
account for volumes, instances, etc?   I see this potentially causing
some operational problems and customer confusion.    Also, currently
the python-nova-client will only list the first one when you use the
"show" command.

What are some of the reasons this would be bad idea?

Thanks for your time.
