Not really. I don't remember, was probably necessary originally and
now it's not. Looking at the code, I think you can also drop the
params=$1 part:

  RewriteRule             ^/(.*) /radosgw.fcgi?%{QUERY_STRING}
[E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization},L]

Yeah. Whichever ceph logging scheme you're using.

The <user>:<subuser> notation is stable.

Both are supported, but note that the 'user create' command requires a
display-name to be specified, whereas the 'subuser create' doesn't. We
can change that later and only require the display-name if the user
does not exist, but at the moment that's how it works.

Yeah, should be updated.

Not for setting up radosgw.

When authenticating the client, the swift_url and swift_prefix are
concatenated and passed to the client as the storage URL, along with
the token.
