Originally created by @cthulhu-rider on GitHub (Apr 27, 2022).

Sometimes binary public key is needed to not just verify the signature, but also for some other issues (compare authors, check ownership, etc.).

Proposal

Provide functionality of key authentication:

type AuthCenter interface {
  AssertKey(id user.ID, key []byte) error
}

Complicate signature check with authentication where needed:

session.Container/Object
bearer.Token
???

we should keep this issue in mind when synthesizing possible custom IAM modules. May be also partially related to #475

convergence of users and credentials may require deeper operations (proposed AuthCenter component)
