           Summary: OAuth2 authorization code grant for REST API

At the moment, we only allow app-to-app access via HTTP Basic Auth or OAuth2
client credentials. This gives third-party apps access to a lot of
functionality and data across all users. This has data privacy/security
implications.

Ideally, it would be great if third-party apps could require users to integrate
with Koha using an OAuth2 authorization code grant, so that the third-party app
could get access tokens scoped to the individual user which authenticates
against Koha (and not via the third-party app). 

The scopes applied to to the token could be limited and the user could give
consent for those scopes. 

And most of all... the third-party app would only be able to use that token for
that user. This limits what the third-party app can do and what it can see.
