Bug Description

As we can see:
https://github.com/openstack/python-novaclient/commit/7601bef9ef70ce69f544e0ffda904a04552bc38c

It should not be assumed that the current user has write access to ~, and should therefore allow env based overrides to allow alternative locations. Defaulting to the current location seems good.

Thanks.
