Dear Taka,

thanks for your feedback.

How would this more generic mechanism differ from the JSON-based request object? I personally would advocate to use both, structured scope & pushed request object, to together.

best regards,
Torsten.

I mean that the mechanism can be used to include any arbitrary dynamic structured data in an authorization request. So, if there were something I might be able to propose additionally, I would suggest renaming "structured_scope" to a more generic name.
