Unfortunately, these features are not supported.  Multipart uploads are not
supported with Unified File and Object for the reason you mentioned, as the
separate parts of the object are written as separate files.  And because
the S3 and Swift authentication is handled differently, the user is not
passed through in the S3 path. Without the user information, the Unified
File and Object layer is not able to set the file ownership to the external
authentication user.  Ownership is set to the default of 'swift' in that
case.
