damnit, i hit enter too soon.
  Hey guys,
thanks for putting this together.
I am concerned with the real world impact of imposing sender constraint |
rotation as a MUST on refresh tokens in every scenario.
Sender constraint isn't immediately actionable - we just had the discussion
for dPOP, hence I won't go in the details here.
Rotation isn't something that can be added without significant impact on
development and runtime experiences:

   - on distributed scenarios, it introduces the need to serialize access
   to shared caches
   - network failures can lead to impact on experience- stranding clients
   which fail to receive RTn+1 during RTn redemption in a limbo where user
   interaction might become necessary, disrupting experience or functionality
   for scenarios where the user isn't available to respond.
   - remediations currently in the wild for this are either clunky (grace
   periods) or downright cumbersome (waiting for the AT refreshed via RTn to
   be used by the client to invalidate RTn, which locks RS and AS in a
   transaction that is both expensive and itself subject to network failure)

I think it's fine to recommend using those mechanisms with a SHOULD, but
imposing those complexities to everyone in the core is asking too much IMO.
Thanks
V.
