That is what I tried to propose to OSW and former IETF meetings through: 
https://github.com/identitymonk/draft-lombardo-oauth-client-extension-claims

it was for Claims in tokens but surely would applied to CIMD which I what I 
think you point at too on top of OAuth 2.1

Hi all,

I just noticed that there doesn't seem to be an explicit registry of OAuth 
Grant Types defined anywhere, should there be such a registry kept with IANA 
for standardized grant types?

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6749#section-8.3

This just says the additional parameters must be registered, but nothing about 
the grant type itself besides it must be an absolute URI (urn's are often used).

Would it be worth defining an explicit registry with IANA as part of OAuth 2.1?

Yours,
Emelia Smith
