OK, so there are two issues here. There's no documented purpose for unscoped tokens that I can see. I've taken that to its logical conclusion, and proposed that we just drop them, but that is only one proposed solution.
As Launchpad doesn't have a nice way to triage the two issues separately, I've opened bug #1214570 to track the lack of purpose. (And this bug can be used to track a proposed solution, if we do decide in that bug that unscoped tokens are purposeless)
