If the user cannot reliably see who is presenting the authorization-sign in 
window, they have no idea who they are giving their credentials to. This makes 
the whole point of delegated authorization moot, so I would consider it 
absolutely necessary to direct the user to a browser window where the location 
bar is visible. 

Cheers,
