I must confess that I'm still uncertain what this means - what are the features you need from a consolidation which your anti-fraud work needs? This is important to understand why you need the authentication in the viewer to be done via a web form as opposed to both the website and the viewer using the same backend webservice to do the authentication step!
However, i've added consolidation as an objective (with a note that the goals and objectives in the critique are currently assumed or derived ones).
I've added issues around llmozlib (e.g compilation problems under linux, proxy support etc.) are Cons for embedding the webform in the viewer
I've added fronting a backend webservice in different ways as an alternative.
I've also added Harold's logging of previous logon attempts and black/white/grey listing as *seperate* alternatives.
