In my opinion the WG shall get the consensus around whether these web
application related use-cases shall be supported in order to move
forward with the WGLC.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "web application"? Do you mean
an application that is not the user-agent?


Either an application running directly in the browser, like SPA, or the application running on the server side and just rendered in the browser.

[SAH] Let me try to check my understanding: what you’re describing is a situation in which the RDAP client is software running on a web server, right? If so, the RDAP-client-side web server (call it WS1) needs to manage sessions for its users, and the web server that’s running the RDAP server (call it WS2) needs to manage sessions for its clients. The challenge here is that the only “client” the RDAP server sees is WS1, and it has no knowledge of WS1’s users. To identify, authenticate, and authorize the users of WS1, we need features that support definition of sessions for those users on both WS1 and WS2. Is that correct?

 

Not exactly. The users (or the user agent they use to be exact) of WS2 have both the session with WS1 and WS2, just that WS1 cannot access WS2 with the same session because of the isolation by the user agent. The user agent won’t send the session cookie it has with WS2 to WS1 because it would be cross domain.

Kind regards 
Pawel
