Referencing arbitrary files works fine here:

$ rpm -qf $(which swift)
openstack-swift-1.4.8-2.el6.noarch

$ swift upload c1 /etc/issue
etc/issue
$ (cd /etc; swift upload c2 resolv.conf)
resolv.conf

$ mkdir t
$ cd t

$ swift download --all
c1/etc/issue
c2/resolv.conf
$ swift download c1
etc/issue
$ swift download c2
resolv.conf

$ find -ls

Note the pseudo hierarchical directories are supported through:
