Me thinks the solutions is to deprecate the User Tool. If accessing DV plugins from a midtier session, the current session information is used to load the DV plugin and populate the DVF. How does one initiate an SSO session from a native tool if an SSO session is not established in the context of a web browser? Kerberos is the only remotely widely deployed cross-platform technology I can think of.
