However - I think it's worth having a discussion about this. I don't see the issue.
Can someone explain? Embedded browsers are a terrible way to offer 3rd party oAuth login. Apps should redirect to a browser for the login flow.
Anything else trains users that typing their password for company A into an app from company B is fine. And surely that means phishing becomes trivial.
