     I've seen it but never looked further than "That should be doable".
     
     I haven't read the RFC but I'm guessing something like an !OStatus instance reusing the Salmon-magic RSA keys for HTTP request signatures to authenticate?

     @gargron What's the biggest outcome from doing this? I am very skeptical to making feeds accessible based on _individual_ authentication (salmon keys) in order to deliver them to a larger notice collection (in effect outside of the control of the person who was used to make the authentication).
     
     I'm still stuck with the "don't mix private and public, especially not in a generally public environment" argument. .)

     @Gargron I'm thinking the only thing this does is to perhaps save a round-trip or two for callback authentication.

     @Gargron Or maybe I'm missing the goal of implementing it. Let me have some !coffee and I'll maybe read more thoroughly. .)
