Yes, heat stacks are scoped to a project/tenant.

It wouldn't be hard to write a resource which creates a tenant/project,
however there will be more changes required before the other resources
in your stack can be created in the context of your new project. For now
you need to create your project and user outside of heat.

As for image upload, a glance resource could be written which registers
an image from a URL. Feel free to file a blueprint for that describing
your use case.
