Hi Henry,

>From a swift perspective, I think we are fine there, as we do not use
the user name or project name anywhere.  At the moment, I'm thinking
that we can do auth in a similar way as we did with v2.0 api.  An
"account" in swift is still tied to the project_id (which used to be
tennant_id), which is in the storage url like:
https://SWIFT/AUTH_{PROJECT_ID}.  Keystone middleware in swift
validates that the given token has permission for the given Project
ID.

>From this point of view domains are an abstract concept in keystone
only, and wouldn't mean anything directly in swift.

Please let me know if any of my assumptions are incorrect.

Thanks,

The problem is when you specify user name or project name in the cases when we have to handle enterprises being represented by a domain and they insist that their name attributes (e.g. user names, project names etc.) be private to that domain (e.g. "what do you mean I can't call my project "Test" because some other customer in another domain got there first!?!").  See the following blueprint which introduces this ability as optional for domains: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/18805/
