It would be great if we could sign into FxA via OAuth in the
firefox.com domain. So users don’t have to hand their password to a
3rd party. I don’t know of a facility that would enable this inside a
iOS/android app.

2) FxA providing Sync keys.  The scheme suggested above, where the App
"only needs" authPW and unwrapBkey gives the requesting App *complete
control of the Firefox Account*.  That's not a thing that should be
handed to any 3rd party, ever.

We have discussed exposing "scoped cryptographic keys" to 3rd party Apps
and/or web content, but I have heard of no particular plans to implement
anything in this direction.

I have particular plans to experiment with this as an extension of the oauth flow, but it's a low-priority project since we don't have any non-hypothetical consumers of such an API at this time.
