This is excellent news and sounds like a much better user experience than the previously discussed options. I would like to suggest it be taken one step further. Could the encoded string with the keys be returned programatically to the Open Source application instead of asking the user to copy/paste? This way the user experience would be very similar to a standard OAuth transaction.
