Bug Description

I was trying to check image-list based on visibility by using the following command:

glance --os-image-api-version 2 image-list --visibility test

But I got output:

<html>
 <head>
  <title>400 Bad Request</title>
 </head>
 <body>
  <h1>400 Bad Request</h1>
  Invalid visibility value: test<br /><br />

 </body>
</html> (HTTP 400)

which does not provide any clear information.

Expected result:
Glance should throw an exception with proper message.

Isn't "Invalid visibility value: test" a clear error message? Can it be even more accurate?

Yes the error message "Invalid visibility value: test" is clear, but the format(html) for displaying the message is not user friendly. IMO the html tags can be avoided so as to get more clear message.

There is nothing wrong with the error message, but last comment indicates that this is duplicate with the client bug for removing the html tags from printouts.
