There is a odd dependency that I am unsure how to break.

This is it. Nova checks if quantum client is being installed. It will assume that quantum server is being requested due to this and adjusts nova.conf accordingly. The reason for this client being installed is for horizon which uses it indirectly (it won't run without it being installed). Unfortunately sometimes u don't want nova to configure itself thinking that it will use quantum but you do want horizon to work.

This is currently fixed by only checking if the quantum server client exists for nova to configure itself.
What to do about that....
