I would like to make the following change to section 8.2:

   New request or response parameters for use with the authorization

   endpoint or the token endpoint are defined and registered in the

   parameters registry following the procedure in Section 
10.2<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-oauth-v2-13#section-10.2>.



   Parameter names MUST conform to the param-name ABNF and parameter

   values syntax MUST be well-defined (e.g., using ABNF, or a reference

   to the syntax of an existing parameter).



   Unregistered vendor-specific parameter extensions that are not commonly

   applicable, and are specific to the implementation details of the

   authorization server where they are used SHOULD utilize a

   vendor-specific prefix that is not likely to conflict with other

   registered values (e.g. begin with 'companyname_').

This is a more pragmatic (and less ugly) solution to vendor specific 
parameters. Instead of using the 'x_' prefix, vendors (have and) will use 
something else that is unique to them. For example Facebook uses 'fb_' for many 
of their parameters.

Feedback requested by 4/1 for inclusion in -14.
