[Openid-specs-heart] FHIR Client Registration is the existential issue for HEART

Aaron,

The state driver's license or US passport authority don't manage any
authorization servers. Neither does any medical board. They are credential
authorities and the root of trust for individuals and clearly they scale.

An authorization server or a FHIR / UMA EHR client are just like my car or
the bus in this picture. The individual gets to choose their agent and
bears the consequences of coming through with a car, a bus, or some EHR.

This is not a parking lot issue. It's the fundamental issue for both UMA
and health information exchange. If UMA and HEART don't deal with it, then
it will need to be handled out of band and we will continue the mess that
we have with each different patient portal using their own special process
for handing out access credentials.
