[CONCEPT]: Connect Scratch Accounts on cloud (WITHOUT asking for username/password)

[Alastrantia]

Addition for Cloud Servers:
Similar to ocular/"Scratch OAuth", comments could be used to verify if an account actually belongs to a user. I've created a slightly modified cloud server that does this at https://github.com/Alastrantia/cloud-server-auth and it could be added to normal TurboWarp, what do you think?
(the biggest problem: the protocol is quite a bit different i had to make changes)

It would be useful to prevent impersonation and re-enable some cloud banking projects, such as ByteBank/BlockBit. idk tbh... Some projects are already implementing a comment verification mechanism, but it would be nice to move that up to server level and save them some effort...

I've been playing around with TurboWarp/scratch-gui a bit, this is what came out:

We don't do this because it doesn't actually fix the problem. Impersonation is still very easy, for example run one line of JS, install some userscript, use an external program, or package the project and put whatever in the username box.

OK, you're proposing something more complicated than just username verification

I don't have plans to add new features for cloud variables or implement anything that tries to turn scratch accounts into a weird authentication scheme

welll okay.. i just thought it would at least make impersonation less of an issue and prevent cloud games from having 100 people with player1234 usernames in them. thanks anyways

btw, here is the demo again, last time was corrupted or something
