This approach is possible. But it is very restrictive to implement a
functionality like an OAuth token endpoint given that we have to access
other Carbon APIs through Carbon Context. IMO existing functionality
exposed through the Carbon Context is sufficient for implementing end user
web apps or services, but it is not sufficient to implement a core
Carbon functionality.
