I'm sick and tired of people telling me that Nova does this Nova does that and we should do that as well in Cinder. That doesn't necessarily make it a sound reason to do anything.
In a case when admin really want to set the quota for a user, whose quota was 20 instances and already spawned 10, to 5. How could you do that in Nova? Step 1: setting quota to 10, and then setup a script monitor # of instance for that specific user to send yourself a notification. Step 2, cross-finger and wait for the user to shutdown one or more of his/her instances so that you can lower his/her quota even more (hopefully that user didn't boot new instance before you can change the quota). Step 3, iterate step 1 and 2 until you can actually reduce quota to 5?
