Hi Olivier, I was reading the doc and I wanted to make my greetings.

In these days I'm reading several dev doc related to OAuth2 (spec and
provider services) and I've one question I'm not able to find a solution at.
In the User Agent flow, I get pretty well the flow cicle, but I can't
understand if it can be really used, or if it is dangerous for security
problems.

As far as you are one of the few giving this flow service, I wanted to ask
your opinion about. If you have also some documentation, I would love to get
more in touch with the low level details.
