Bug Description

would be nice if it's possible to use pattern matching for the field "name" while using "glance image-list". at the moment i can only specify the full name of an image to show details for that specific image. but i want to write "ubuntu-*" to see all images starting with "ubuntu-".

I worry that this feature implies normal glance queries would result in full table scans.

I think, it is related with Bug #1369008.
I tested it, and works well with glance-client. (the same as in dashboard).
The only thing that is to implement regex (*, startswith, endswith, etc...) in python-glance client ?
If yes, I can carry on with it.

There is also possible to add grep according to documentation.
IMHO it's no so breaking legacy API, and it's no so hard to use.

This would need to be supported by th API, which it is not. It would be wildly inefficient to fix this in the client. We would have to request *all* images and then filter them client side rather than relying on the database to do that work for us. We will not fix this in the client any time soon.
