[2.3.3 Scala] play.api.libs.oauth.Oauth methods not returning Futures

[Johan Andren]

Just noticed when trying to interact with twitter oauth, the methods on Oauth (retrieveRequestToken, retrieveAccessToken) 

returns Either[OAuthException, RequestToken] and not Future[RequestToken] even though they require a http call to

the oauth server, so I take it they are blocking? (why?)

You're correct, it should be using a Future, just from an API perspective.  I'll open up a ticket.

Under the hood, Play is using Signpost, which I suspect (but have not verified recently) is blocking in any case:
