Just a small follow up, I did some testing with a federated login app. This seems to work fine for Google Accounts. For Google Apps accounts the authentication process appears to happen correctly, but the app does not recognize a user on subsequent requests (even though I do get an access token).
If anyone has used the built in OAuth provider with federated login and an Apps account I'd love to know if you needed to do anything differently.
