Unfortunately, this is more like a feature request than a bug, as the behavior of rebuild is undefined for volume-backed instances: in current master of Nova this will cause a re-attach of a volume, but it's not going to be rebuilt from a new image.

We'll take this into consideration and try to propose a BP to upstream.
