Description RHOS Integration 2013-12-12 19:42:13 UTC 
Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/python-keystoneclient/+spec/keystoneclient-auth-system.

Description:

Historically we had auth_system in novaclient used for Rackspace Cloud key based auth system but now used for other things :

We are using it for X.509 auth, where we need to authenticate against
the HTTP server where keystone is running with the user certificate
instead of using the passwordCredentials dict. Basic or Digest auth are
other use cases for this system.

We should move that feature from novaclient to keystone if we ever want to finally move novaclient to keystoneclient.
