Hi Gary,

Yes, that is expected behavior.

Since the UUID is the unique ID, a tenant can choose to name networks using
the same string.

Its a bit tricky, but I think the convention we follow in the API docs (
http://docs.openstack.org/incubation/openstack-network/developer/quantum-api-1.0/content/index.html)
is that any value that must be unique is explicitly described as such, and
all other fields are not expected to be unique.
