Dynamically registered in-browser public clients are effectively one-time-use and shouldn't outlive their active tokens by very much, if at all. Should we have a parameter that indicates the client is one such thing to allow the auth server to expire the registration at a future point? This would let auth servers clean up after public clients.

I like this. (I had proposed it for dyn-reg, where it was deemed out of
scope.)

I think we have a chance of doing it with BB+ because we've got the six client types that are verifiable by the auth server, the common case of dyn-reg doesn't have that.

I won't press the point because inclusion in BB+ is all we need right now.
(But in dyn reg more broadly, any client that wants to auto-expire
shouldn't need to have that preference "verifiable" by the server; just
expressing the "expire me" preference really ought to be sufficient.)
