Glad you like it! Thanks for reviewing.

I was torn about this. From a protocol perspective you're not implementing
the protocol if you don't do that, so it should be a MUST. However, we need
to be careful that we defer to the provider when it comes to what
authorization is included as this is always their discretion.  I'll think
of a better way to word this so that it can be a MUST while still not
limiting the provider's discretion.

Good point. That section is mostly talking about the client, I'll add a
section for the server. I agree, the normal behavior would not be to revoke
previously granted scopes (which is how Google implements it).

Best,
