OAuth scope for requesting a user's owned games?

Right now, it's either you only request for basic profile information, or you request literally everything about their account. In my opinion, there should be a middle ground where you only request to see their basic profile information and the owned games in their library, not the games they have edit access to.

I agree we should have more oauth scopes. 

Are you trying to actually see everything they own, or see if they own a specific game of yours?

A little bit of both but mostly the latter. Currently, the way to do the latter is to make an additional call to my own server which will use my personal API key (which has access to games I create) and counter check it with the user's basic profile info
