Title:
  limit default set of fields shown in *-list cmds

Status in Python client library for Quantum:
  Fix Released
Status in OpenStack Quantum (virtual network service):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Our list commands default to showing every field in an API entity,
  which means the tables always wrap and are a total mess in a
  reasonably sized terminal.  At least with nova, only a subset of the
  columns are shown for list, and if more details are needed, it
  requires running show on a specific UUID/name (or in the case of
  quantum, specifying -c with list).  With Quantum, I find that I
  regularly run quantum net-list -c id -c name to make sure the output
  is readable.

  I'd suggest we have the following columns display by default:

  quantum net-list: name, id, subnets (ideally, subnet cidrs, using
  verbose=True query)

  quantum subnet-list:  subnet-name, id, subnet-cidr, allocation-pools
  (really this command is less useful if we do a good job with net-list)

  quantum port-list: port name, port id, port fixed-ips

  You'd still be able to use the -c flag to define the set of columns
  that *-list returns, this is just about defining the default behavior.
  I image that most scripts would use -c, so I see this as mainly a
  question about human operators, particular newbie human operators.
