Matthias Niederhausen commented on WOOKIE-384:
----------------------------------------------

Hm, what I did do was to open the Wookie demo page in different browsers. Even 
the two demo pages shown when I select a widget there are different instances, 
from my understanding. After I did then grant access to one of the widgets, the 
other did no longer need permission and received the token of the first widget.

> When I use the "persist" parameter of the oAuth feature (which is the 
> default), every other user will automatically use my token after I have 
> approved access.
> This results in a severe security issue, e.g., my google contact list being 
> shown to someone else.
> Using "false" for the parameter value, I have to re-authenticate every try 
> (which is okay).
> The behaviour for "true" should instead be to cache the token for every 
> individual user (i.e., widget instance).
