Sounds good - possibly worth trying to contact someone on the psa team as well. I think we need to decide whether an updated plug-in is the best way to go or whether this should be a core part of either PSA or web2py. The plug-in may be the quickest way forward but it might well be better to go another route as it reduces the risk of being back in the same situation we have now where changes in PSA mean the plug-in doesn't work with latest versions.
There was some previous dialogue on wihether python social auth or authomatic was the better approach and that did seem to come down in favour of PSA because authomatic was no longer being maintained.
