Description

The requirements in Authorization Request

Other metadata parameters MUST be ignored unless a profile of this specification explicitly defines them as usable in the client_metadata parameter.

In the case of using DIDs as client identifiers how should the wallet retrieve UX related information such as client_name, logo_uri and tos_uri?

Research direction

Start with the Authorization Request section linked in the issue, especially the rule about ignored metadata and the client_metadata parameter. Read the discussion thread to understand the unresolved alternatives for DID identifiers. Done means the specification or an explicitly identified profile clearly defines how wallets obtain client_name, logo_uri, and tos_uri.
