22:47 <isd> So, I am attempting to write a disqus/isso-like app for sandstorm (I investigated just porting isso, but concluded it would be more trouble than it was worth).

22:47 <isd> https://github.com/zenhack/sandstorm-comments

22:49 <isd> It's partially working, but I'd like to make it possible for comments to be associated with user accounts. However, the embedded script is anonymous, and I'm having a hard time figuring out a smooth way to get the user's comment to be associated with their account

22:49 <isd> Right now it just does a POST right from the article, but that won't include the user info.

22:50 <isd> I could add a little "sign-in" button that links to the grain UI, but it's really clunky to have people not able to compose the comment on the page, and it still won't forward the credentials to the endpoint.

22:51 <isd> I guess I could shove the grain UI in an iframe, but that seems super awkward too. Would be less so if I could just show the content of the grain, rather than the whole UI.

22:51 <isd> But I don't know how to do that, and it would the sign-in finicky too

22:53 <isd> And except for the sign-in issue, the current UX (from a commentor perspective) is reasonably nice -- the comment box looks just like another part of the page, and it picks up the stylesheet. I'd like to preserve that if I can.

22:53 <isd> Any ideas?
