can not upload object name that starts with slash

[clayg]

I can't seem to get swiftclient to upload an object-name that starts with slash from the command line.

ubuntu@saio:~$ swift upload test blah --object-name "/blah"
blah
ubuntu@saio:~$ swift list test
blah
ubuntu@saio:~$ swift upload test blah --object-name "//blah"
blah
ubuntu@saio:~$ swift list test
blah
ubuntu@saio:~$ swift stat -v test

... but it's a totally reasonable object name

ubuntu@saio:~$ curl -H 'x-auth-token: AUTH_tkbbacdcc6abb04947ac498a80ca4394ab' http://saio:8080/v1/AUTH_test/test//blah -d awesome -XPUT
ubuntu@saio:~$ swift list test
/blah
blah

an --object-name that contains a slash, or ends with slash is fine.

I can't think of a reasonable way to get the cli to craft an object name that starts with a slash from a path on disk - so it may only be an issue with the --object-name option.

I haven't tried to demonstrate the issue with the service, but I wouldn't imagine it'd be a problem with the Connection class.
