Public bug reported:

Operators have expressed interest in being able to create and operate
virtual routers with different flavors under the OVN L3 plugin. This RFE
proposes:

1) Disentangle the management of OVN routers from the OVN L3 plugin and
move the associated functionality to a driver, that would be the default
driver under the ML2/OVN mechanism driver.

2) Allow operators to define other drivers under the OVN L3 plugin, that
will allow the creation and management of virtual routers flavors
implemented in other back-ends outside of OVN

A proof of concept patch has been pushed to Gerrit to illustrate the
intent of this proposal:
