If I remember correctly, Facebook prohibits users from supplying third parties with their Facebook Login credentials for the purpose of that third party logging in on their behalf.

Edit: From Section 4(8) of the Facebook TOS [1]:

"You will not share your password (or in the case of developers, your secret key), let anyone else access your account, or do anything else that might jeopardize the security of your account."

How does that apply to the suggested workaround of the user running the necessary content scraping on their own machine and pushing the results to Power?
To be specific, we mean like a chrome plugin or something at that level, right?
