There is also a bug in nova. Both the documentation and the data model
show "description" as an optional field, but the implementation
erroneously requires it as it calls a validate_property function on
"description" whether it was provided or not:

Title:
  security group create errors without description

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Confirmed
Status in Python client library for Nova:
  In Progress
Status in OpenStack Command Line Client:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  security group create returns an error without --description supplied.
  This appears to be the server rejecting the request so we should set a
  default value rather than sending None.

    $ openstack security group create qaz
    ERROR: openstack Security group description is not a string or unicode (HTTP 400) (Request-ID: req-dee03de3-893a-4d58-bc3d-de87d09c3fb8)

  Sent body:

    {"security_group": {"name": "qaz2", "description": null}}
