I'll shoot you an email, and we can talk more if you do end up working on this.

I'm not a big fan of pre-registered clients in the first place. Ideally any client should be able to talk to any OAuth2 server that speaks the same profile, ie endpoints and scopes. Aaron Parecki describes a way to allow "anonymous" clients here[0]. As I understand that's how IndieAuth is implemented. But I'm still relatively new to OAuth, and I don't doubt there could be subtle security issues. Do you have any thoughts on that?
