Re: [development] Web Service auth in Core, timeline.

If it is a useful approach, improves the code, etc., it MIGHT get in for 4.7. Alternately, you might be able to wrap it as a contrib module, and have it applied to the 4.8 branch as soon as that is opened for development.

I would like to see it in Core for 4.7. The addition is extremely minimal, like approximately 40 lines of code. Most of which lies in a couple of RPC call functions I added and some token checking stuff. I submitted it as a patch. The only thing I am unsure about is safety / design of calling the drupal session functions directly. Ben
