I wonder if we should close this bug now. I didn't realize that it had been left open. Namespaces can be deleted when they're no longer needed by setting options in the l3_agent.ini and dhcp_agent.ini files. See this commit for details:
The reason that this is a configuration option and the default is False is the problem with the iproute package that prevents clean deletion of namespaces. Attempting to clean the namespace with a broken version of iproute can make really make a mess of your network node. This was discussed in the comments above.
