Public bug reported:

Horizon relies heavily on the copy_from attribute when creating new
images, for example from feedback from deployers we even offer the
option to entirely disallow direct file uploads [1] [2] and only let
end-user create new images by indicating a URL.

It is my understanding that the copy_from attribute isn't currently
implemented in Glance v2. As we slowly add proper support for v2 to
Horizon [3] it would be really helpful if there was a way to create an
image given a URL when using v2 also. If this is already tracked
somewhere else, please me know! Thank you.
