I don't think any Swift client supports the public/private split,
even if you have in Keystone catalog. You have to set the external
IP (or preferably hostname, actually) in the endpoint descriptor
in Keystone.

The practical way to make the split is to use a hostname, and then
have internal DNS point to internal IP and and external to public IP.

The meaning of the final question is somewhat foggy, because you
have a complete control of what endpoint in Keystone lists.
