Foo.com should point the client at, say, http://as.com/foo/ or 
http://foo.as.com/ or http://as.com/?scope=foo or 
http://as.com/?encrypted_resource_id=273648264287642 or whatever it has agreed 
to with its AS.

The WWW-Auth response from foo.com should not be just http://as.com.

Foo is much better placed to know it shares as.com with Bar than a client is.
