I think that our biggest concern will be signing new requests with the AccessToken. requests-oauthlib/requests provides native support for this. I don't see how we can do that easily with httplib2.

It seems that the base oauthlib would be our best bet for getting onto the platform that is post popular and well documented. See https://oauthlib.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ requests-oauthlib is built on top of that. Also note that MediaWiki supports OAuth 1.0, so that oauth2client lib won't work for us.

If we do go the route of implementing our own request signing strategy with oauthlib, we'll probably want to start something like httplib2-oauthlib. I suspect this will be hard to do (maybe more difficult than writing out the httplib2 bits) and need some help from someone like @csteipp to get it reviewed.
