the security considerations section does recommend to not automatically process repeated authorizations without validating the client's identity

The authorization server SHOULD NOT automatically, without active
   end-user interaction, process repeated authorization requests without
   authenticating the client or relying on other measures to ensure the
   repeated request comes from a valid client and not an impersonator.

BTW: I would suggest to rephrase the last part to "... comes from the same client as authorized by the original authorization request"

regards,
Torsten.

I don't think there is anything in the spec (correct me if I'm wrong) saying that an AS couldn't "remember" a user's authorization for a given client using implicit so as to avoid subsequent prompts for authorization?
