Comment (by dllh):
As a little proof of concept, I've added keys-from-api.patch, which
replaces the "go create your own app" rigamarole with bits that fetch
consumer and secret keys from the api if not stored in a transient.
From a user perspective, this is a much improved experience, though it's
maybe not 100% desirable to have the keys world readable. Still, it may be
a better alternative to shipping them in the plugin itself, and it'd allow
the keys to be swapped out pretty quickly if needed.
It's sort of a compromise between putting the onus on the poor user and
shipping keys in software, without going to the (potentially painful)
extreme of making an actual proxy for the auth.
