Juca, I think Lucas is correct, Alerts has the multi-tenancy model
built in and so requires a tenantId on everything. We already have a
standalone distribution (for use outside of Hawkular) that drives off of
the Hawkular-Tenant header, so I guess we would just continue to use
that mechanism in all cases. I guess that means we may drop the
h-accounts dependency but I will discuss further with Lucas and we'll
continue to monitor the accounts changes.
Lucas, this may further drive the need for schema refactoring because if
we only receive a single tenant on everything coming from MIQ, we will
get very little data distribution.

So, if I interpret correctly, it seems that the change will be that we should handle the
tenant aspect explictly as we do for standalone scenarios.
Well, that's not a big change at all, I think we covered that usecase with the
Hawkular-Tenant header.
