Is there any example or documentation on how to share a security context between Orion and a remote web application hosting functionality used in an Orion Plug-in?

Scenario:

* A Plug-in is installed in Orion which allows to open a file managed in Orion to be modified by an editor provided with a remote web application.
* After creating such a file, the remote web application intends to store the modified file back or obtain other related files from Orion.

Hereby the remote web application should

* inherit the security context already obtained via the login on Orion (e.g. via a token issued by Orion),
* be able to double check it against Orion to avoid fraud and
* use this security context to invoke the Orion server API.

I have tried to find corresponding documentation without success but may very well have overlooked something.

Anybody having any pointers?
