+     "Macaroons, like cookies, are a form of bearer credential.  Unlike opaque
+tokens, macaroons embed caveats that define specific authorization
+requirements for the target service, the service that issued the root macaroon
+and which is capable of verifying the integrity of macaroons it receives.
+
+Macaroons allow for delegation and attenuation of authorization.  They are
+simple and fast to verify, and decouple authorization policy from the
+enforcement of that policy.")
