We now use HttpOnly cookies, which preclude the use of third party applications. Support for API tokens that can be supplied with Bearer Auth, would help expand the potential of the api beyond the front end service itself.

This would be a great implementation for implementation building, as it would open the door for integrations into R/python packages and command line tools.

Doing some light research, and it seems like using Bearer tokens should be doable when added to the middleware. So we can move forward with this fairly soon upon the upgrade milestone.
