------------------------------------------------------------

Well, you have a point, for the Auth code grant it does not really make sense, 
the spec has to be wrong or very unclear. In the other flows (Resource Owner 
Password Credentials and refreshing tokens) it is reasonable to not require it 
I think.

> Client credentials should not be required for any other flow than the client 
> credentials flow. It is required in Oltu in the "Resource Owner Password 
> Credentials Grant", "Authorization code Grant" (when requesting access token) 
> and when refreshing tokens.
> About refreshing access tokens, taken from 
> http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#page-47 :
> "If the client type is confidential or
>    the client was issued client credentials (or assigned other
>    authentication requirements), the client MUST authenticate with the
>    authorization server as described in Section 3.2.1."

> http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#section-4.1.3 :
>   If the client type is confidential or the client was issued client
>    credentials (or assigned other authentication requirements), the
>    client MUST authenticate with the authorization server as described
>    in Section 3.2.1.
> Note however that for the "Authorization code Grant" the "client_id" param is 
> required if client credentials are not given.
> So the validators for these cases should not set enforceClientAuthentication 
> = true.
