+1 to authorization grant

something more like "invalid_token_parameter" would maybe make sense, since it's not just *any* parameter, it's the special "token" parameter that we're talking about, but it's distinct from the invalid_token response. The introspection endpoint uses the same pattern of a token= parameter, but since the whole point of the introspection endpoint is determining token validity it doesn't actually throw an error here. 

I agree that it doesn't need to be registered (since it's on a different endpoint).

Only if it's optional, and informational from the client's behalf. Would you define "access" and "refresh" values here, with a means for other specs (like OIDC) to put in their own values (like "id_token")?
