The name of this method has plagued me for years, so I figured I would finally propose a fix. The reason v3_authenticate_token() is a terrible name is that it implies that a token is being authenticated (in other words: validated). As it turns out, we have another operation that validates tokens, and this isn't it. By renaming the method to v3_create_token() there is absolutely no confusion about the intended outcome. This also more closely reflects how we colloquially refer to operation. v3_authenticate() might have also have been an improvement, but could lead to the same confusion we have today (whether or not the user is authenticating with keystone or whether a service is authenticating a token).
