Requiring SP to authenticate user _before_ the request token request, 
returnin an identity token to the consumer which is then required as 
part of the request token request.  This way, an attacker can't generate 
a request token that can be authorized by another user.

I vote for "authorization token", which invalidates the previously 
issued request token and is used by the consumer to prove it has been 
authorized by the user.  The consumer would then use the authorization 
token with the original request secret to receive an authorized access 
token.

It should replace the value of the oauth_token.  There's no reason to 
use a value that an attacker can already know.
