+1 on out of band auth being moved to a more fully-specified extension. It can 
(and likely should) still use mechanisms such as auth codes, but with different 
requirements such as no return URL. This is where things like the 
<title>code</title> hack can live, as well.

Marius,

I support the extension (as per my previous letter, as I missed this thread 
over the holidays) and Kiva is/was planning to support this as well.  Given the 
unpredictable technology environments of many of our customers, this flow is 
essential for our implementation.

However, now reviewing language in draft-12, I wonder if it isn't more clear to 
define the extension as using a different response_type (eg, oob_code).  In the 
past, the use of "oob" has been more of hack to work with existing specs. In 
truth, it is a unique flow of its own compared to Implict and Auth Code as they 
are currently defined.  Such a flow would not accept a redirect_url and could 
use "oob_code" for both response_type and grant_type.
