There's indeed no logic to create admin users through the Keystone API.
If you want a different user for each and every service, then you have
to create it by yourself using the openstack command line. We could add
the logic for it, but I don't think it's useful. Your thoughts?

BTW, I had a look at the bug reports you sent about db issues, and it
looks like to me that you were using SQLite. For a number of project,
this isn't supported upstream. I'm therefore confused and not sure what
I should do with these bugs. Any comment?
