Hmm.. ok.

I actually do need my phone to authenticate to the API.  I'm not sure I
understand OAuth scopes, or how they relate to FxA.

I think what I want is to create a 'mozstumbler' scope which has read-only
access to email address.  When nicknames are supported, I'd like to have
read/write access to that as well.  I'm currently using `profile:email` as
my scope.

The part I'm confused about is how to create a new scope.

I don't see how to do that in the OAuth dashboard over at :
https://oauth-stable.dev.lcip.org/console/login

The docs don't seem to point to how to create a new scope, and it seems to
indicate that I can't create a new scope.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Tech/Firefox_Accounts/Introduction

   - *scope* - the requested scope of FxA user data or API access.
   Currently, only *profile* and related sub-scopes (e.g., *profile:email*)
   are supported.

To be honest - I don't really understand why I need a new scope for
devices.  I think I have a gap in my understanding of what the scope is
supposed to do other than restrict access to profile data.
