A couple notes here:

For Essex, the Location information is no longer available through the Glance client. This is because of security issues (there were credentials in the Location URI if you used Swift/S3/RADOS backend stores.

Always showing the Kernel ID and Ramdisk ID in the image details page is Amazon-specific. You should only show these fields IFF the custom kernel_id and ramdisk_id properties are set.

The same actually goes for all custom properties -- only show the custom property if the property exists.

The State displayed is actually NOT the image status, but the euca2ools-specific image state. I would advise showing the Image Status, as returned in the status field by Glance, and then having an "euca2ools state" custom property only appear when the image actually has a tagged custom image_state custom property, as this doesn't make any sense for images not handled using euca2ools.

Cheers!
