Google Account Chooser with chrome.identity

[Andrew DiPrinzio]

Is there a way to display the "google account chooser" page before showing the Oauth2 api approval page using the chrome.identity api? currently i use chrome.identity.getAuthToken interactive=true, but it doesnt allow the user to select their desired account. Any thought would be much appreciated.

Anyone know this?  I am also trying to figure this out.

As far as I know, the chrome.identity API only allows you to get tokens for the Google account attached to the profile the user launched the app under. It does not support the same multi-login functionality available on the web.

As a result, to get this functionality I need to implement something more custom?

I was able to get it partially working by following this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26256179/is-it-possible-to-get-an-id-token-with-chrome-app-indentity-api/32548057#32548057

But the authorization doesn't persist if you exit chrome completely.
