Public bug reported:

[Existing problem]
The OpenStackClient CLI (python-openstackclient project) has limited neutron support (network, security group, security group rules, floating IP address and fixed IP address CRUD).

[Proposal]
Per OpenStack spec https://review.openstack.org/#/c/243348/, the OpenStackClient CLI should be the recommended CLI for OpenStack projects.  Therefore, support provided by the existing neutron CLI should be moved from the python-neutronclient project to the python-openstackclient project.

[Benefits]
A common CLI for OpenStack projects provides users and operators a consistent CLI experience when working with OpenStack cloud environments.

[What is the enhancement?]
This enhancement would result in the neutron CLI moving from the python-neutronclient project to the python-openstackclient project.  In addition, users of the python-neutronclient extensibility support would need to transition to the python-openstackclient plugin system.  The state of the python-neutronclient project serving as a Python library is TBD given that the python-openstacksdk would be used to implement the neutron CLI support in the python-openstackclient project.  Eventually, use of the python-neutronclient project would be deprecated and possibly removed.

I've recorded additional details in the following etherpad:
