Major New Features:

The Red Hat Support plug-in for Red Hat OpenStack is a Technology Preview

from the Red Hat OpenStack administration portal. The plug-in provides automated
functionality that enables quicker help, answers, and proactive services. It
offers easy and instant access to Red Hat exclusive knowledge, resources,
engagement, and diagnostic features.

This update will both install the plug-in by default into python-django-horizon
and will harden the plug-in's JavaScript

All Red Hat OpenStack users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages
which address these issues.
