I'm not sure why this change was made unless it's to prevent timing attacks? couch_util:verify seems to do something equivalent and it's strange to me that we should be making calls into the couchdb sources from erlang-oauth, which should be independent. If it's for the timing reason, can we put a verify inside erlang-oauth and get it upstream or something for the future?
