Hi Elliot, Rodney, thanks for your replies.

It seems the issue may be more complicated that I imagined.

Doesn't passing the oauth token obviate the need for the authentication
step?  Why would anyone want to remove that?  And doesn't it make
operating in a headless environment *easier*?

Please consider operation in a cli-only environment my submission to a
wish-list, then.

Thanks for taking the time to think about this.
