Being that the response from the api is like this:

RESP BODY: {"hypervisors": [{"status": "enabled", "state": "down", "id":
1, "hypervisor_hostname": "vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64", "servers":
[{"uuid": "a6d9eb5e-4e37-41fa-a193-6d4dc3fe7b98", "name":
"instance-00000007"}]}, {"status": "enabled", "state": "down", "id": 2,
"hypervisor_hostname": "vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64.localdomain",
"servers": [{"uuid": "814f2047-2af9-4fa6-980c-7235a38db793", "name":
"instance-0000000a"}, {"uuid": "09f6842f-2baa-43f7-9c72-5615507ec1df",
"name": "instance-0000000b"}]}]}

there isn't much novaclient can do about this other than do an
additional lookup per instance with uuid to get display_name. I
personally don't think it's the right way to get the display_name.

In the v2 api, a field could be added for display_name via addition of
yet another hypervisors extension. It would require a nova-spec to go
this direction. Coming in Juno there will be versioning in the api, so
perhaps after that lands this can be added without adding another api
extension.

  here print a list of instances, but the Name column is not
  display_name but instance_name, it's a little misleading
