(Get the code!)
There is an issue with this change that is somewhat subtle: if you put a button which says "Start" which as a side-effect allocates, then we're really making the "Allocate" action mysterious. The button would need to communicate "Allocate and Start (with default options)" to ensure the action is understandable without reading the state machine, but how do you put that on a button? Maybe:
[[ Allocate and Start ]]
(with default options)
Related:
* bug 1379187, where there is a complaint about OS and Release being on node edit versus being part of the "start" action workflow
* bug 1378936, which is a quasi-security issue with users being able to change OS & Release of any node (as opposed to only of Acquired nodes)
