Subject: Next XOAUTH2 patch: nnimap-login

Hi all,
Now that the patch is in for smtpmail-try-auth-method, my (yet not
submitted) auth-source-xoauth2 package allows me to send e-mail through
Gmail using XOAuth2. The next piece of the puzzle is reading e-mail, and
the needed patch is now in nnimap-login. I have it working by advising
it, but I am thinking that nnimap-login maybe should have the same
extensibility as its "mirror" smtpmail.
This function seems harder to generalize - one of the ways would be to
make the entire `cond' body a list that can be added to, and then turn
it into
(defmacro nnimap-login (user password)
`(cond ,@nnimap-login-methods))
or something like that. With that, adding support for a protocol could
be done with
(add-to-list 'nnimap-login-methods
'((and (eq nnimap-authenticator 'xoauth2)
(nnimap-capability "AUTH=XOAUTH2")
(nnimap-capability "SASL-IR"))
(nnimap-command
(concat "AUTHENTICATE XOAUTH2 "
(base64-encode-string
(concat "user=" user "\1auth=Bearer " password "\1\1")
t)))))
Opinions?
