I'm still getting used to the Adwords API (using the PHP SDK). I have an 
authorization workflow and the consenting account's refresh token is stored 
for later use, along with the client ID/Secret, and Developer key. 
(I do wish this SDK used the same Google_Client object that the other 
Google APIs used, or that it used the json files generated by the API 
Console)
I also apparently need a Customer ID to do anything in the system... I find 
this odd, I guess? The API should already know which user account this is 
regarding (the one that consented and whose access token is in use). 

We're working on a SaaS system at the moment to allow users to authorize 
through our site and attach their entered "leads" to a custom targeting 
list (to an existing list? Or create a new one? Not sure yet), and it seems 
like forcing them to copy and paste their customer ID from AdWords is an 
odd extra step... Have I misunderstood something? I don't seem to be able 
to make calls without that "clientCustomerId" value, though I'd like to be 
able to automatically pull the most relevant top-level one for that account.

What am I doing wrong? Am I misunderstanding the workflow?
