Bug Description

Currently, the swift cli only supports auth with options like --os-auth-url or --os-auth-token .
It would be nice, if, for object operations like

 'delete', 'download', 'post', 'stat', 'upload'

, it would be possible to specify a (prefix-based) temporary URL with an option like --auth-tempurl

One could argue, that you could also use programs like cURL for handling temporary URLs. But users often do not like to switch programs or are not willing to learn new cli interfaces. Besides that, splitting up LO's into segments is a builtin feature in the swiftclient, and would otherwise have to be programmed manually.

This is cool, it will also reduce usage of `curl` in many heat-templates and provide native support for tempurl
