Thanks for the confirmation. I guess I'll have to rely on informing
the user as you suggest.
It looks like a gap in the API to me, there must be plenty of websites
out there that might want to confirm a user's identity with their
twitter account, without wanting access to their tweets.

yes it would, I think people are more worried about the ability to
write than read.
You could just put up a message saying this is only being used for
sign in and we will not read your stream.

Searching for "sign in with twitter" pointed me to:
http://dev.twitter.com/pages/sign_in_with_twitter

be registered to use OAuth, and that the access type it requires

search for sign in with twitter and you should be ok.
All you need to do is let them login with oauth and you will get those
details.
