True, thanks for clarifying. Why do we provide the option if using it
is not supported?  Will this be removed in a future release?

Basically the process of configuring the Neutron provider is:

1. Add the provider to RHV-M/ovirt-engine
2. Add a host without selecting the Neutron provider

3. Manually install and configure the Neutron Open vSwitch agent on the host

Am I correct that this is the supported approach?
