I would suggest a social module. wdyt? +.5 :) I would like, in Android, to use the OS level integration for authz (including OAuth2). I think this can be done done without changing the APIs too much/ diverging from iOS.

However for the specific modules (keycloak, Google, Facebook) I wouldn't mind separate packages. This is especially so on Android where the Google and Facebook accounts may already be stored locally and not need an extra trip to web land.
