Hello!
Why features file is read-only. If an admin want to force some attributes,
we can let them, right?
Leave it read-only because the hardware may not want to allow them on that
flavor and so it would
have to be device specific.
You are clear right for hardware devices, but for software ones (bridge
for example) it makes sense. Anyway, only admin can change them.
If you have a bridge with 5 net cards and 4 supports SG, some people
may want to force SG on the bridge.
