Yes, indeed. And when I wrote "acceptable", I meant "in principle", not
verbatim ;-)

2) On page 9 the text states:

The authorization request object MUST be either

   (a)  JWS signed; or

   (b)  JWE encrypted; or

   (c)  JWS signed and JWE encrypted.

 

This should be replaced by:

The authorization request object MUST be either

   (a)  JWS signed; 

   (b)  JWE encrypted (when secret keys are being used); or

   (c)  JWS signed and JWE encrypted.

 

That's acceptable. (Thanks for amending your proposal after several private
exchanges.)  

 

 

 

Secret is not a clear term to use.  It should be JWE encrypted (when
symmetric keys are bing used)  

The private part of a RSA keypair is also secret.
