> Currently the OAuth2 Consumer stores access/refresh tokens per gadget, per user.
> I have received comments that it would be convenient to allow a set of Gadgets to share a tokens per user.  Improving the user experience for a group of OAuth2 dependent gadgets by not triggering additional opt-ins.
> Technically this is possible to implement with a custom OAuth2Store or OAuth2Persister but it would be nice to formalize it in shindig and the sample persistence plugin.
> When an administrator creates an OAuth2Client they can specify that the client is shared.
>       "shindig_client1" : {
>          "providerName"  : "shindigOAuth2Provider",
>          "type"          : "confidential",
>          "grant_type"    : "code",
>          "client_id"     : "shindigClient",
>          "client_secret" : "U78KJM98372AMGL87612993M",
>          "sharedToken" : "true"
>       },
> (If the value is not specified the default will be "false", keeping the current behavior.)
> In this case any gadget bound to the "shindig_client1" client will use the same access/refresh token for the user.
> Administrators should take extra care when binding sharedToken clients.
