Feature suggestion

Support for https://solidproject.org/TR/oidc (published on 2022-03-28)

Expected functionality/enhancement

Client should use DPoP bound ID token and push it as a claim to UMA AS.
Access tokens shouldn't cross security domains and only be used with RS which advertised the AS with as_uri

Actual functionality/enhancement
Use Cases

There is an open source Keycloack extension coming which conforms to the published Solid-OIDC draft
https://github.com/CarrettiPro/keycloak-solid

Preferably this client should be able to work with it.

Research direction

Start by reading the linked Solid-OIDC specification and primer, focusing on DPoP-bound ID tokens, UMA claim tokens, and the as_uri requirement. Review the client authentication flows before defining the change; done means supporting the specified browser and Node.js behavior without sending access tokens across security domains, including compatibility with the referenced Keycloak extension.
