[Openid-specs-ab] Use Proxy to set the correct aud...

The simple answer to setting the correct aud is to use an OpenID Connect 
proxy.

This is why we wrote oxProx: trust is managed between the proxy and the 
OP--as it should be. Then the proxy can establish trust separately with 
all the RP's the comprise your service.

We recently finished the code, and are working an an admin UI and 
documentation. But for a quick overview of oxProx, you can check here:

BTW, I still don't see this as a solution for API access management. For 
this, I think you need UMA which defines a way for the client to request 
an authorized token to present to the API server (Resource Server, or 
RS). Check out the diagrams here: http://www.gluu.co/.g1k6
