====================================
Spec Lite: Deprecate owner_is_tenant
====================================
:project: glance
:problem: The ``owner_is_tenant`` option, which is True by default, allows an
operator to run Glance in a nonstandard configuration where the
image owner is the *user* who created the image. In all other
OpenStack services, resources are owned by the *project* (as
they are in Glance when the default setting is used).
A survey of operators conducted in March 2017 indicated that
no operators who responded (14) are using this option. As it
is little used, results in a nonstandard OpenStack experience,
and complicates the Glance code, the option should be deprecated
in Rocky. Following the standard `OpenStack deprecation policy`_,
it should be removed early in the 'S' cycle.

:solution: Use the oslo.config facilities to mark the option as deprecated.
As it appears that this option is used only in its default setting
of True, no migration path is proposed.
