That's the only approach I could imagine using, short of precomputing the entire response. But I wasn't altogether sure it was valid, though neither can I think of a reason why it is not. That's why I asked. I'm in the process of implementing auth-int and it is, to be charitable, "challenging". Has anyone else implemented server-side auth-int? Is anyone else *planning* to?
