Hi Francis,

I like that alt2 introduces the additional discussions we had previously
(on privacy and other topics) but I think this schema is too prescriptive.

Depending on the situation, one may either require the GS to provide the
front-channel, or decide to separate it.
Why mandate that interaction B shall always occur through the GC? If I' a
GC, I could just as well decide that it's enough to just separate the
front-channel from the GS, without handling it myself.
Why mandate that interaction C shall always occur through a GS? (I'm sure
Denis will not want this, for instance).
Are we sure we need to formally separate B and C? This goes beyond previous
discussions of separating the front and back channels, and I don't really
see the advantage (maybe there is: which use cases would be impossible to
do otherwise?).

So overall, I think Alt2 over-complexifies the situation. We need to remain
flexible.
Why not simply have an (optional) way of separating these flows from the
GS?

For instance, an (optional) Interact Server (IS) could provide support for
a decoupled front-channel:
- it does not change the interaction between a GC and a GS. It does change
the trust model though, depending on which options are chosen. In practice,
the GC may specify which IS it wants to use (it can be his own, for
instance). In case nothing is specified, the GS decides.
- the IS is able to handle the front-channel for idclaims and consent, and
return back to the GS what access tokens are required.
- notice that although the IS is focused on front-channel interaction,
there are cases where the consent needs to be based on policies instead of
a direct human interaction (typically when end-user is not the RC, and
therefore the end-user is not the one that is asked for consent / then of
course, if the RC logs in, he would be able to manage his consent
policies).

So there's really no obligation that B occurs through the GC and C occurs
through the GS. It depends on where your front-channel is located (GC, GS,
third-party).
This I think makes it a very flexible model, while enabling what we're
after.

Fabien
