[Openstack] [Swift] How to mark a container as publicly accessible (no auth required)

Does anyone know how one would go about setting a Swift container as public
(as in no auth required to snag objects stored within it).  Based on some of
the documentation I've read it seems like maybe one would have to set the
X-Container-Read ACLs to some sort of wildcard and then use a custom
authorization handler in order to bypass the normal auth scheme.  I'm not
really sure if that's the desired way to go about it or if there's an easier
way that doesn't involve writing custom authorization handlers.

Any insight would be appreciated!
