One user to manage all my ETSY Developer stores

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

I am running 6 stores with more to come. I do not think its efficient to have seperate developer accounts for each store. Its confusing an error prone. You already have my personal details so is it not possible to have just one developer account with oath credentials to access all my stores. My primary need for the APIs is to bring all my store details into one dash board on my Desktop app so i can see at a glance what's happening in all my stores. I can still do this with separate accounts for each store but its confusing.

Describe the solution you'd like

A single sign on solution where I have just one registered development account with access via API to all of my owned stores.

Example: 1 dev account 1 set of keys

Access to all of my stores.

Describe any alternatives you've considered

Alternative is what im already doing. Creating separate developer accounts for each of my stores and requesting api access for each store individually... major point of frustration.

Additional context

This is done pretty easily on the developer end, something I suspect quite a few of us have already done. Just store your credentials together, and write some middleware so that your requests use the right tokens.

I've noticed that Etsy now makes it a little trickier to Auth more than one shop because of some stored browser data which just pipes you back to your redirect URL. Use an incognito tab, or clear your cookies from all Etsy sites so you can go in and make your second (and 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th) authentication(s).
