Re: [OAUTH-WG] Proof-of-Possession Key Semantics for JWTs spec addressing final shepherd comment

I can say on all windows based devices (pc, xbox, phone, etc) with only TPM 1.1 this will be the approach so it will be commonly used

OK, no good reason unless the client is using a HSM that can do HMAC and can export a symmetric key wrapped in a asymmetric key provided by the AS.

We don’t currently cover that use case of sending a wrapped symmetric key to the AS in POP key distribution.   
I don’t know how common that is going to be, but it is worth thinking about defining.

In those cases the client is doing the key gen in hardware so one hopes it is OK.   In the symetric case the client generating the key is weaker (as in I can’t think of any really good reason).
