Comment 2 for bug 1759839

I agree that 8780 is not aligned with what people are commonly using for exposing as a placement port (8778).

However, ideally, entries in the service catalog should be on port 80 or port 443 and be distinguished from other service by either a path (e.g., https://controll/placement) or domain (e.g., https://placement.controller/) and not port.

Using ports makes life more complex for firewalls and is generally just bad design for web-based services.
