We have our webapp integration working using the secure AuthSub authentication mechanism. But we have noticed a potential usability issue with it. Say a user has two Google accounts - Username1 and Username2. They link us to Username1 account and we display that they are linked. Then they log off of Google, and later on log onto Username2 account. They then use our application to push data to their Google health record. The data appears in Username1 account as it should, but since they are logged into Username2 account it may look at first glance to them like the data was not sent. I understand this is the proper and expected behavior, but to new users it might seem confusing. (We have had some people be confused by it already.)
I think it would help usability if we knew the Google account username, because then we could display to the user that we pushed data to the Username1 account. I don't see any way with the AuthSub api that I can get the username associated with a given AuthSub token. Did I miss something, or is this not allowed? If it is not allowed, is it something I could reasonably request as a feature enhancement -- it doesn't seem like a security breach to me since it is only the username and not the password...
