Only ease of configuration I think (for 'custom' node-health-strategy
which I think is most suitable for my use-cases).

I would prefer to have "constraints" not in location rules, but in
resource definition.

I really like how utilization handling is implemented at the
configuration/XML level, and I think it is worth having the same for
SLA/health.

Best,
Vladislav
