As was pointed out by Robin, rados and rbd are different. |

Considering verbose alternatives to rbd: they may be invented, but |
14 |
will be non-standard and this will confuse our users: it will be |
15 |
similar to "portableng" instead of "png". |

Since we don't have rbd meaning conflict right now, it should be |
18 |
safe to use. In case of future issues, local USE may be used for |
19 |
alternative meanings. |
