- invalid_token error code: I propose to use the new error code

would like to get your advice.
something more like "invalid_token_parameter" would maybe make sense, since it's not just 
*any* parameter, it's the special "token" parameter that we're talking about, but it's 
distinct from the invalid_token response. The introspection endpoint uses the same pattern of a 
token= parameter, but since the whole point of the introspection endpoint is determining token 
validity it doesn't actually throw an error here.

I agree that it doesn't need to be registered (since it's on a different 
endpoint).
For what it's worth my thinking was that if we have an 'invalid_parameter' error, then the description can define which parameter is invalid. I don't think we should create a bunch of specific error values that are endpoint specific and could overlap which is where the whole error return value started.

Thanks,
George
