Xenial verification has completed successfully using xenial-proposed
with the following packages:

openstack-dashboard: 2:9.1.2-0ubuntu5
python-sahara-dashboard: 4.0.0-1ubuntu1.1
python-murano-dashboard: 1:2.0.0-1ubuntu1
python-trove-dashboard: 6.0.0-1ubuntu1

After installing each package, permissions for /etc/openstack-dashboard
and /var/lib/openstack-dashboard remains as follows and the dashboard
continues to function as expected:

/etc/openstack-dashboard:
total 36
drwxr-xr-x   2 horizon horizon  4096 Mar 16 13:26 .
drwxr-xr-x 101 root    root     4096 Mar 16 13:27 ..
-rw-r-----   1 root    horizon 26775 Mar 16 13:29 local_settings.py

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  nobody at juju-a45617-0-lxd-4:/$ grep PASSWORD /etc/openstack-dashboard/local_settings.py
          'PASSWORD': 'yNXwml0TXuWjcW19jDzE49IiohSIMY',
  #EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'top-secret!'
  #OPENSTACK_ENABLE_PASSWORD_RETRIEVE = False
  OPENSTACK_ENABLE_PASSWORD_RETRIEVE = True
  #ENFORCE_PASSWORD_CHECK = False
  nobody at juju-a45617-0-lxd-4:/$

  Needless to say, I should not be able to see passwords as 'nobody'.

  This is on a customer site, but I've reproduced at least the world
  readableness with a fresh deploy of cs:openstack-dashboard locally.

  This release sports mostly bug-fixes and we would like to make sure all of our
  supported customers have access to these improvements.
  The update contains the following package updates:

     * <TODO: Create list with package names and versions>

  [Test Case]
  apt install openstack-dashboard
  sudo ls -al /etc/openstack-dashboard/

  permissions should be:
  -rw-r----- 1 root horizon 30995 Mar 13 14:12 local_settings.py

  sudo ls -al /var/lib/openstack-dashboard/ # should be recursively
  owned by horizon:horizon before and after installing any dashboard
  plugins

  [Regression Potential]
  Very minimal regression potential. The fix is already in artful/pike and bionic/queens.

  [Discussion]
  The following comment is copied from comment #30 below but important to call out for SRU review:

  coreycb: I've uploaded designate-dashboard, murano-dashboard, trove-
  dashboard, and sahara-dashboard to the Artful Unapproved queue where
  they are awaiting review by the SRU team. Note that these changes are
  only updating these dashboard to use the proper user:group when
  performing chown on /var/lib/openstack-dashboard. This may look
  tengential when just looking at the Artful packages but it aligns with
  the changes being made for the Ocata cloud-archive (and already made
  in Bionic) that run openstack-dashboard under horizon:horizon instead
  of under www-data:www-data.
