    But now that the server responds with the current configuration,
    it's no longer just about client preference but also about the
    server expressing to the client what it should do. So if a client
    gets a client_secret, and the server is OK with it using basic,
    post, or jwt with that secret, how can the server tell the client
    this?<br>
    <br>
    The simplest thing is to keep it a single value as it is now, but
    that's (as always) a tradeoff between flexibility and complexity. <br>
