Identity Manager (IDM): REST support authentication with JSON WebTokens (JWT)

JWT tokens are commonly used in web applications, often as a simpler alternative to OAUTH2 authentication.

This is not supported in the REST shim as is. One can approximate this with two drivers, one to register for a token, the other to make regular REST calls with the token. This is unwieldy.

Is it possible to extend the REST shim to support this common auth method?
