Thanks Anton, I'll check out the open ID module. It doesn't look ( on further reading ) like it should be too hard to share auth, the session id for the cookie in drupal is stored sensibly and accessible fairly cleanly ( I think! ). I think if I can figure out how to get and stash the entire incoming request that would be helpful. ( Especially for working with TG2 and Ian's wicked cool WebOb stuff. ) I think I will try going both ways and see what I can come up with. I'll certainly write any findings here.
