I suspected this, but good to know for sure.

As I understand this, the callback can only be made if you specify a 
return-address (so to speak). But since my app can be run from anywhere 
there is no return-uri so the user is presented with a page with a readable 
authorisation-code. this is what happens:
1. User starts app for the first time in browser
2. User is taken to consent-page of Google (either in same window or new 
browser window/tab)
At this point, there is no actual communication anymore between my app and 
whatever the user does.
3. The user authorises the app and gets taken to a page that displays the 
authorisationcode with the text that user must copy/paste this. 
I would like to circumvent this if possible? the reason is that I suspect 
not all my users to be so tech-savy to understand how to copy/paste this.
