You must be delighted when it happens! ;)

> While you may assume that it is reasonable for a client with a code to make a request to the token endpoint including it's client_id and the server to only give out the access token if the client_id in the token request matches the one in the original authorization request.   However the spec specifically doesn't require that.

I think that is an error in the spec and should be changed, or text adding saying that the client_id SHOULD be checked.
