[clayg]

request body:
{"status": "creating", "availability_zone": null, "display_description": null, "snapshot_id": null, "user_id": null, "size": 1, "display_name": null, "imageRef": null, "attach_status": "detached", "volume_type": "vtype", "project_id": null, "metadata": {}}}

response:
+---------------------+--------------------------------------+
| Property | Value |
+---------------------+--------------------------------------+
| attachments | [] |
| availability_zone | nova |
| created_at | 2012-10-25T18:26:14.275828 |
| display_description | None |
| display_name | None |
| id | b1f383b0-6470-4e8a-9e02-56728b0b4501 |
| metadata | {} |
| size | 1 |
| snapshot_id | None |
| status | available |
| volume_type | 1 |
+---------------------+--------------------------------------+

then on show it's fixed:
+---------------------+--------------------------------------+
| Property | Value |
+---------------------+--------------------------------------+
| attachments | [] |
| availability_zone | nova |
| created_at | 2012-10-25T18:26:14.275828 |
| display_description | None |
| display_name | None |
| id | b1f383b0-6470-4e8a-9e02-56728b0b4501 |
| metadata | {} |
| size | 1 |
| snapshot_id | None |
| status | available |
| volume_type | vtype |
+---------------------+--------------------------------------+

since volume_type is a backref on the model, you have to iter when creating the dict

Can we fix in v1.0 or do we have to wait for v1.1 ???

tough call, but I would consider this a bugfix for 1.0

    Return volume type name on volume create

    Update openstack api controller for volumes to fully inflate the
    returned volume model on create to populate the volume_type fields so
    the response serializer will return the name of the volume_type instead
    of the id on volume create requests. Returning the name on create is
    consistent with the show and index commands.

    fixes bug #1071436
