Hey there,

I noticed quite a few people having trouble setting up the initial 
authentication with custom auth, so I thought: why not  expand on the idea 
of the extra handler/hook in sync_gateway, as described here: 

https://github.com/couchbase/sync_gateway/wiki/Custom-Auth-Proxy#related

But provide integrated support for JWT out of the box? There are JTW 
libraries for go, so I believe code changes would be minimal. I still have 
to learn go though. Maybe some more experienced developers could take a 
look at this?

I've explained the situation in more detail here (text is extensive > skip 
to implementation number 3 - Own Authenticated Server + JWT): 

http://ti.eng.br/couchbase-mobile-with-jwt-tokens/

Either if its implemented or not, in that article I try to clarify such 
questions (sessions, tokens, etc). Hope it helps somebody, feedback is 
welcome.

If it does get implemented, I think its a double-win: users get the 
authentication issue solved for both replication AND standard REST calls, 
also in a simpler way.
