The new Pocket api for pulling stories is great but they are pushing all developers into switching to oAuth instead of username and password.

Since Calibre recipes don't store anything nor do they normally jump up prompts for users I was wondering the best way to tackle this. Has anyone else used an oAuth based API for pulling stories?

For now I should be able to squirm around it in the transition period but they will inevitably kick everyone over to the full api.
