Platforms change over time. These platforms are not designed with providing APIs and web services in mind. They are also typically not capable of running over SSL (due to the self-hosted nature of most deployments). Using an apache rewrite rules might be hard for some developers, but it is a good solution when there are issues with platform limitations.
If there are actual requirements for using OAuth 2.0 with such systems, we should discuss these, but it would be silly for us to architect our work based on the limitations of random platforms.

I'm ok with that. I think this is an unfortunate hubris of the spec-defining community here. For most people, if it comes down to "change my platform or don't support oauth", the answer is going to be "don't support oauth". -- Justin
