Kathleen,

Thanks for the update. How would we best handle this situation, since 
it's really referring to additional information that's outside the scope 
of the interoperable core? Since we're not specifying what the data is, 
we're not really in a position to say what the concerns are in a 
concrete manner. I'm thinking a sentence or two like this in the privacy 
considerations section:

    If the protected resource sends additional information about the
    client's request to the authorization server using an extension of
    this specification, such as the client's IP address or other
    information, such information could have have additional privacy
    considerations.
