Blake,

Thanks, understood however I respectfully disagree with this approach. I think it perfectly reasonable to expect MAAS cluster controller in one domain to control hosts from another one. For example one might want to have single controller for .internal and .canonical.com and .devel domains to save hardware.

If this behaviour is here to stay then maybe this bug is usability one.
In MAAS 1.9 nodes list first column is labelled "FQDN" and my hosts contain .internal suffix there. When I switch to the node view I see the same name with .internal suffix so it all looks like it _should_ work.
I think short error message indicating what's wrong should help.
