Public bug reported:

In nova/api/ec2/__init__.py there are codes like:

154     def __call__(self, req):
155         access_key = str(req.params['AWSAccessKeyId'])
156         failures_key = "authfailures-%s" % access_key
157         failures = int(self.mc.get(failures_key) or 0)
158         if failures >= CONF.lockout_attempts:
159             detail = _("Too many failed authentications.")
160             raise webob.exc.HTTPForbidden(detail=detail)

But webob.exc.HTTPForbidden should use the 'explanation' parameter to
show the error message.
