This isn't all that clear to me. The documentation doesn't mention it... and if the open PR #96 is any indication (provided it's still a valid PR and the functionality hasn't gone in elsewhere in some other file), it would appear that the answer is no. If ACLs are in effect, there's no way to pass a token to kvexpress to use?

Absolutely. If you use the --token flag you can set any token you want on the command line.

What that PR did was grab the token from environment variables - which in some situations is worthwhile.
