  Have you considered OAUTH, so that passwords don't flow through your
  server at all?
  Given the controversy around oauth2 [4]

One loud critic doesn't equate to a controversy.

Yes, it does if arguments he makes are valid.

oauth and oauth2 are completely different things though. First one is a good 
thing that worth looking into, although signature is a bit too complex. Second 
one isn't even a proper standard, because there is no interoperability.

I'm curious about browserid though. Is it already used somewhere in the wild?


Well by Persona, which is a project originally started by Mozilla. Unfortunately they dropped it earlier this year though it seems like the community took over [1][2]. You can still login using Persona on different Mozilla websites, not sure about it's adoption outside of Mozilla.

Personally I'm not interested in protocols based on HTTP [3]. And the server I'm currently building uses a very simple JSON (for initial auth) + BSON (for data) wire protocol over TCP.
