Hi Jean-Paul,
There is a project, https://github.com/minskmaz/txWebAuth, to which I contributed a tiny amount of code. Neither the main author nor myself have done much to progress the work, but there is a rudimentary design in place at least. The only major difference between txWebAuth and guard is some widening of the ICredentialFactory interface, which is necessary to allow for form-based and OAuth flows.
Thanks for the update, Daniel.
If that's really all there is to it, would this widening of ICredentialFactory be appropriate to just include in Twisted? Would that help OAuth (and its ilk) move forward in the txEcosystem?

That's the only change to an existing twisted interface. The rest can be done via checkers and appropriate guard-style wrapper resources. The change to ICredentialFactory is so tiny that I don't know if there is any meaningful benefit to making that change in twisted proper, but I'm fine with whatever works for the interested parties. Thanks, L. Daniel Burr
