The importance of 'low' is fine as long as it doesn't mean "this will
never get fixed".
I've considered changing ec2-init to crawl the metadata service early on
and then make the data available in files in /var. This would be both
faster and more secure. Right now any process has access to the entire
metadata service, which possibly contains sensitive information.
