I've described the main issue in another mail in this bug thread. The
problem is that Google's terms of service explicitly forbid to put
client IDs into "open source projects". You can read their terms of
service here:
https://developers.google.com/terms
Section 4b, paragraph 1:
Developer credentials (such as passwords, keys, and client IDs) are
intended to be used by you and identify your API Client. You will keep
your credentials confidential and make reasonable efforts to prevent and
discourage other API Clients from using your credentials. Developer
credentials may not be embedded in open source projects.
So for authors of (F)OSS non-web applications, this in effect makes it
impossible to use OAuth2 with Google services if a client id/secret is
required. The client id/secret is used to identify the application that
is making the request.
