That sound better to me.

If it's that hard to get it working, I wonder if it can be justified to
put it in tasksel yet, where a casual user could stumble over it.

I can think of a few reasons to include it:

* To advertise that Debian is providing openstack packages.
* Perhaps to aid deploying openstack. But if there's a long
  and complicated deployment process, eliminating an apt-get
  install from it, and using tasksel instead seems that it
  would not significantly improve it.
