Description

```
{
"error": "invalid_client_metadata",
"error_description": "The value of one of the Client Metadata fields is invalid and the server has rejected this request. Note that an Authorization Server MAY choose to substitute a valid value for any requested parameter of a Client's Metadata."
}
```

Not sure if this is still the message, but it would be nice to say what field is missing, and why the field was invalid. It should also say if a field was missing (like `redirect_uris`)
