#5735: Swift authentication fails for installations using "swauth"

    Priority:  normal     |  Milestone:
   Component:  openstack  |    Version:  3.8.1

--------------------------+---------------------------
 Cyberduck is unable to authenticate users against a Swift installation
 when the installation is using "swauth", Swift's new authentication system
 introduced in the 1.2 release.

 There are instructions that describe how to work around the issue at
 http://trac.cyberduck.ch/wiki/help/en/howto/openstack:

 "Context Path

 To change the context of the URL from the default /v1.0, use the  hidden
 configuration option defaults write ch.sudo.cyberduck
 cf.authentication.context <string>."

 However, I was unable to make the authentication work using this method.
 Also, it is unclear if this affects Swift globally within Cyberduck,
 though I assume it does.

 So first issue is that I can't make it work by attempting to point it to
 /auth/v1.0 (which is what swauth wants).

 The second issue is that this should be a per connection configuration and
 should not be treated as a global setting, as this URL will vary from
 installation to installation.
