Comment 2 for bug 1315224

Just some more discussion in IRC this morning:

@devananda | asserting power state post-registration seems reasonable to me
@devananda | however
@devananda | it doesn't make sense in some ways given today's api
@devananda | you register a node. but you can't register it WITH a power state
@devananda | so then ironic checks the node's current power state and /might/ go turn it off

              mrda | so adding an optional desired_power_state might be the way forward?
              mrda | ...to the api

@devananda | mrda: dont think that's good either

...the discussion continues... ;)
