Ok, I'll add text to the draft that says this.

Note that this can be trouble if a client asks the AS to bind an existing symmetric pop-key to another (new) token it is requesting.
Which one of the two tokens bound to that key is now steering the expiration of the key?

[Hannes] Normally, the client would only request a symmetric PoP token from the AS and the AS would create the symmetric key and return the PoP token + the symmetric key.
Hence, in the normal case this shouldn't be happen.

Are you proposing we make the expires_in field mandatory? If so, why isn't it mandatory already in OAuth (currently only RECOMMENDED)?

[Hannes] I would do the check when the field is actually there. However, it is a good question why it is not mandatory in OAuth. Let me drop a mail to the list.

Ciao
Hannes
