Having multiple ways of doing thins is confusing for final users, but i
wouldn't change ubuntu behavior once it has been released.
Anyway, i would upload a review today to remove it and start using only
.ini files. Just as a reminder, you can still use nova-manage to convert
files:

$ ./bin/nova-manage config convert --help
Usage: nova-manage config convert <args> [options]

Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--infile=<path> old-style flagfile to convert to config
--outfile=<path> path for output file. Writes configto stdout if not
specified
