The question is about how RS can find the issuer from a bearer token that
it received from the client. Obviously, a header from the AS does not work.
We would have to have some kind of structured token. It can be a JWS or
something proprietary to the trust framework.

Note: the client is untrusted and forms an unprotected segment. You would
have to treat the client as the smartest, in a bad way.
