             Summary: Add tokenless OAuth login class
                 Key: KAFKA-21221
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-21221
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Chia-Ping Tsai
            Assignee: Chia-Ping Tsai


KAFKA-21143 showcases a real use case: a broker that only validates incoming 
OAUTHBEARER tokens (inter-broker uses another mechanism) does not need a token 
of its own. Today the only way to get a tokenless login is to rely on the 
default OAuthBearerUnsecuredLoginCallbackHandler, which is documented as 
testing-only. The fix for KAFKA-21143 repairs that default path, but production 
users still deserve a dedicated, documented class that skips token retrieval.
