In section 6 of the OAuth spec (either 1.0 or 1.0a versions -- they're the
same here), I see the following:

Request Token:Used by the Consumer to ask the User to authorize access to
the Protected Resources. The User-authorized Request Token is exchanged for
an Access Token, MUST only be used once, and MUST NOT be used for any other
purpose. It is RECOMMENDED that Request Tokens have a limited lifetime.
I'm wondering what this "MUST only be used once" is intended to limit.  Is
it sufficiently compliant to say that the SP will only ever give out the
Access Token for a given request token once?  Or does it mean that a desktop
consumer app cannot keep polling the server with its request token until it
finally gets an access token when the user finishes authorizing the request
token?
