New issue 1473: RP as synonym for wallet might be misleading

Vittorio Bertocci:

“RP” as a role predates both OIDC and OAuth, indicating an entity that consumes a token to identify a caller/grant access.   
OAuth clients aren’t RPs, as they get tokens to gain access to other resources rather than consuming them themselves.  
In OIDC client==RP, though- because the defining characteristic of OIDC, the idtoken, is indeed meant for consumption by the client itself, and often used as a factor in granting access, RP session creation etc.  
In VC issuance, it would appear that the wallet behaves more closely to an OAuth client- offering the ability to ask, obtain \(and present\) credentials that are meant to be consumed by other entities \(verifiers\) rather than the client\(wallet\) itself.   
As such, I feel that the \(client==RP\) notion in OIDC doesn't apply here, and calling the wallet RP is misleading for the reader familiar with existing literature.
