Description

As I understand the current draft, an application would need an Agent's Access Token to retrieve the Agent's Application Registry set. This seems to defeat the purpose of limiting access of Applications to specific Resources as descibed by the draft, since the Application could simply use the Token to access all resources as if it were the Agent itself.

Do I miss something here?
