Compute templates (flavor) additions / support for API changes

Allow to add all of existing "extra specs" for a compute template to the GUI or support doing it via the REST APIs.

Today, the "extra specs" for the compute templates (flavors) is not complete through the GUI. We'd like to be able to define the "storage connectivity group" in a compute templates.

We add it to compute templates using the REST API, but whenever we make a change through the GUI, it overwrites it and removes the storage_connectivity_group from the template / flavor.

    Thanks for the suggestion. Could you please provide some more information on this? Today you can create compute templates (OpenStack flavors) and specify the SCG; it's not yet clear what the exact flow you're describing and what isn't worked as you'd expect? Thanks again in advance!
