That doesn’t explain the need for inter-operability. What you’ve described is what will be common practice.
It’s a great open source technique, but that’s not a standard. JWT is much different. JWT is a foundational specification that describes the construction and parsing of JSON based tokens. There is inter-op with token formats that build on top and there is inter-op between every communicating party. In OAuth, a site may never implement token introspection nor may it do it the way you describe. Why would that be a problem? Why should the group spend time on something where there may be no inter-op need. Now that said, if you are in the UMA community. Inter-op is quite foundational. It is very very important. But then maybe the spec should be defined within UMA?
