I got this working: simonw/datasette-auth-github#64

Just one problem: it uses the existing ds_actor cookie, which means it doesn't actually exercise the actor_from_request plugin!

It does use register_routes though.

Alternative idea: a plugin that handles Bearer token authentication. Uses metadata.json with secret plugin values to map an incoming token to an actor dictionary, which can then be mapped to permissions.

datasette-auth-tokens can be the name. I can get a simple initial version of it running pretty quickly.
