The more I think about this solution, the more I get convinced it is not going 
to work in the general case. The main problem in this is that the resource 
parameter has a strict format: it MUST be an absolute URI. This works for SAML 
entity id's and OIDC issuers, but it will not work in the general form of a 
client identifier. Many of the client identifiers we use are UUIDs. There is no 
way to put this in the resource parameter on the authorize request. The 
library we use to implement our OAuth2 endpoints is very strict in this.
