Feature

This is a wish feature, but being able to recieved "magic links" via an API or push? https://github.com/evanx/authbot as an example using telegram, but simplex seems ideal... The company would host a docker, that docker would have its own simplex Id.
I could then add that I'd to my simplex chat and say, when I to to.access my Webmail, the link would appear in simplex, click, and server authenticated, or 2fa code verified etc....

Simplex method of 2 keys secure chat seems ideal for secure authentication, I know it's not the original goal, but having this for my homelab, family members to use to login, or even deploying at clients for logging in via webauth as an endpoint would help adoption....just my 2 cents and I want to know smarter people's opinion :)
