A detail here that I am not clear on; I'm thinking of Ed's use case about a vCPE.

Why do opaque labels need to be passed through Neutron, for this use case? Presumably when the entity that would know about those labels creates a port, it gets back a port ID in the REST response. Why can't it just pass that port ID and the labels out of band to the controller (or mechanism driver, or agent, as appropriate) with the implication "when you see <port ID> come up, apply to it the behaviour implied by <labels>"?
