I've never tried directly yet, but App Manifest doc page on MDN seems to
describe a "redirects" manifest attribute to cover this use case:

- https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Apps/Manifest#redirects

As an real usage example, you can take a look to the "communication gaia
app" which use redirects to connect
Facebook using OAuth:

-
https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/blob/master/apps/communications/manifest.webapp#L141
-
https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/tree/master/apps/communications/redirects

I hope this helps,
Luca
