Definitely.

For example, I'm interested in deployments where neither clients nor
resource servers need secret keys.  This makes adding new clients and
resource servers trivial.

The challenge here is that even though lots of people are interested
in various semantics for "scope", and various types of relations
between clients, resource servers, and authorization servers, not
everyone has the same use cases and requirements.
