Redfish or Irrelevance?

So, it seems that the standard RESTful API to BMCs is RedFish. With HP,
Intel, Dell and others on board (with at least HP iLO shipping product).

There's already an OpenStack Ironic driver for Redfish and a bunch of
other tooling.

It feels that not going this route would paint us into a corner of
irrelevance and being the tricky platform to deal with.
