Public bug reported:

The current scope API doesn't allow the developer to specify the OAuth client 
keys at runtime, they must reside in the .service files which end up installed 
on the filesystem.
Some people are concerned about exposing their API keys, and would rather embed 
them in their scope binary and specify them at runtime. While acknowledging 
that this will actually not improve the security, this possibility is offered 
by all other Online Accounts APIs, and it would be nice if scopes offered this 
too.
