Understood.  However, can we post it somewhere so that it can be
referenced if someone has this issue in the future?

I'm not advocating pulling in the SG for Advanced Zones feature anymore.
I *do* realize that we will still have some stranded users sitting on
2.x versions (which stinks), but the decision to drop support was
pre-ASF and the re-inclusion of the feature should follow the normal
process (bring it in via a standard new feature merge window).

Based on the notes above - I'm going to *not* block on CLOUDSTACK-2463
anymore.
