Right now Auth module does not seem to serve any purpose anymore,

but as we have discussed on JS meeting,

there may possibility to integrate with third-party endpoints such as Keycloak, Auth0, Mozilla Personas, etc.


As I can foresee it, Auth module may serve a purpose of single point holding authentication data such as tokens,
that can be used  for setting up authentication of either third-party frameworks we use (e.g. in demos, such as in AngularJS this can be used to register itself to HTTP request interceptor),

or it may handle authentication for our modules, e.g. Data Sync.

I'm not saying we shouldn't remove it at this point, but my question is rather what do we recommend instead?

+1 don’t think it makes sense to keep it,  for iOS it was used only for the Controller case since basic/digest was already handled by the platform
