Not sure.  I've just test-driven Julien's google-contacts.el which uses
oauth2.el, and the google page showing the auth code constists of first
a large part of JavaScript and CSS stuff and then plain but complex HTML
where the auth code is inside a <textarea>...</textarea>.

Possibly, one could rip out the code of the page with some heuristics,
but that doesn't look very promising in the general case...
