Description

I think its a good idea to add support for custom grant_type. This could be used to grant token from reqBody (custom parameters other than client, authorization_code). Thoughts?

Research direction

The issue names custom grant_type support and existing client and authorization_code parameters, but identifies no files or tests. Start by locating the current grant-type handling and reviewing how request-body parameters are processed. Done would require an agreed request contract plus implementation and coverage for custom grant types.
