That's completely fine (and not uncommon at all).

Why?

Yes, tempauth is still in swift. It's mostly there for testing. I wouldn't recommend using it in production.

"user account" Do you mean the identity or the account part of the Swift URL? If the former, then changing the reference in the auth system should probably work. If the latter, then you'll need to copy from one account to the other (Swift supports account-to-account server-side copy).
