Thanks for the feedback and recommendation! This looks very interesting. I'll send it along to the team.

As it stands though, API apps do need to process the app authorization using the OAuth flow, either via the user's own default system browser (preferably) or via an in-app browser.

The rest are not beta though, and are ready to use. Let me know if you're looking somewhere else though, as that might just be an old label we didn't clean up yet.
