My suggestion would be to replace this text:

An OAuth 2.0 based authentication method, as described in [RFC7635]. It
uses the OAuth 2.0 Implicit Grant type, with PoP (Proof-of-Possession)
Token type, as described in [RFC6749] and [OAUTH-POP-KEY-DISTRIBUTION].
 .... rest of section ....

with

 An OAuth 2.0 based authentication method, as described in [RFC7635].

The amount of detail currently in the webrtc-pc document is, to my mind,
inappropriate for a W3C spec. If the IETF has failed to come up with a
single "handle" by which all this detail  can be referenced, the IETF
needs to solve that problem.
