+1 with the exception of a new scheme name for signatures. I think we need to 
get to a stable draft before we can figure it out. But I would like to keep the 
core spec open for (small) changes until we do.

I added this to -10:

Authorization: OAuth <token> [optional extension key="value" pairs]

EHL

The current spec has the client create a "name='value'" syntax exactly
once, in the Authorization header.  We could eliminate a fair chunk of
client code by removing the name="value" syntax and going with the
approach taken by the Basic, NTLM, and Negotiate schemes:

Authorization: OAuth2 <token>

No more escaping beyond what your HTTP library provides.  Just call
setHeader("OAuth2 " + token), and you're on your merry way.

We are going to need slightly more flexibility once the signature
proposal settles down.  For that, I'd suggest using a different scheme
name.

Authorization: OAuth2Signed <self-describing-signed-token>

Cheers,
