Mike Glance metadata gets used for billing tags, among things, that we would like to stay as attached to a volume as possible, as another example. Windows images use this - which is why cinder copies all of the glance metadata in the first place, rather than just a bootable flag.
Apparently protected properties (glance metadata items that are immutable once set) won't cause a problem here since we will be setting them on upload, which is allowed.
