We can do that too, and I rather like it.  I thought there was a big "don't 
cross the beams" warning somewhere though.

What if we define a means to request OAuth1 style tokens from an OAuth2 
auth/token endpoint, but defer to OAuth1 for methods of how to use the token at 
protected resources?

well pursue MAC in the interim to do this, but a full HOK solution woul work 
too.
