Bug Description
While there's a great reason to *allow* specifying the id of the flavor you're creating (e.g. you want to "replace" an existing flavor) the more common use case is actually to create a new flavor in which case you don't care what the ID is and *requiring* that the end-user specify it is actually counter-productive, confusing, and potentially frustrating.
Ideally that parameter would be optional and if not specified Nova would simply assign the flavor an unused ID automatically.

pretty easy to make flavorid optional and default it to the id value in the db or just generate a random uuid.
