My understanding (based on somebody's previous answer in the mailing list, or possibly one of the IRC channels) was that you could only do this with the template backend, and when you were using the database backend you had to explicitly add endpoints for each tenant that needed to talk to the API.

Can you confirm that you can use the $(tenant_id)s syntax when the backend is set using the following keystone.conf entry:

[catalog]
driver = keystone.catalog.backends.sql.Catalog


Take care,
