Eran,

I see value (at least for servers) in having browser and HTTP clients work with common tokens (e.g. MAC) - even though the mechanism for exchange may vary.

I had an email exchange with Harry Halpin. He suggests cross posting to the w3c public-identity list.

They are discussing web cryptography and MAC tokens may be an important use case.
