The .admin is simply a group that grants this user account ownership.
Account ownership itself allows to create/delete/list containers (a
little bit simplified, but that's the basic idea).

You can't, at least not with tempauth. Managing users using tempauth
authentication requires write access to the proxy server, and from a
security point of view any public accessible webserver should not be
allowed to write directly to swift proxy configuration files.
If you want to add/delete/modify accounts you have to use an
authentication system with an API, for example Keystone or swauth. But
there is no support for Keystone in swiftbrowser (yet?), and for swauth
it's not yet complete.
