Agree-- this topic has come up several times, and I think it's just a
matter of deciding between keystoneclient or openstack-common.

Although I wouldn't immediately think to look for middleware in a client
library, my vote goes to keystoneclient; auth_token should utilize
keystoneclient's python API anyway.
