I have been working recently with the authentication process that happens during a WordPress XML-RPC remote login, with the intention to log into a J2Bloggy site using the standard WordPress iOS app and authenticating the user with the j2e user credentials.
A very helpful blog was this one http://ben.lobaugh.net/blog/7175/wordpress-replace-built-in-user-authentication
I successfully added the necessary code to our plug-in and it works! The one problem is that it is only useful for J2e users that do not use Shibboleth to log in to J2e 🙁
