Subject: [OAUTH-WG] implicit clients and refresh tokens

According to http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-oauth-v2-15#section-4.2.2 it 
doesn't look like clients of the implicit oauth2 flow should receive a 
refreshing token although it looks like the access token can optionally have an 
expires_in time set. Does this mean there is no step for an implicit client to 
refresh their access token without involving the user again?

According to http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-oauth-v2-15#section-6 it 
looks like a client needs to send in the client credentials, including the 
client secret, to refresh an access token. This is a no-go for clients that 
can't securely secure a client secret like a web browser.

Is providing no way for an implicit client to refresh an access token without 
involving the resource owner intended?
