I think we really need an authentication mechanism other than cookies,

There is bug 13920 [2] that hasn't moved since 8 months. I remember that
some people disagreed with this patchset because it is crafting a custom
authentication system instead of using some "standard" one (I remember
OAuth was mentioned).
Do you know of any "standard" auth system that we can implement, or
existing Perl libraries we can use ?
How about the Perl OAuth2.0 libraries?
http://search.cpan.org/~markov/Net-OAuth2-0.63/lib/Net/OAuth2.pod
OAuth2.0 is pretty much becoming the standard for talking to various
RESTful APIs - I've used it against Google calendars, Microsoft Graph API,
etc, etc. Admittedly I've often crafted my own OAuth2.0 support for those
though.
