Description

Request Object defined in OpenID Connect Core 1.0 Section 6 or JAR (JWT Secured Authorization Request) support.

Because Request Object (or JAR) has a considerably big impact on authorization server implementations, it should be designed and implemented from the beginning. Otherwise, it will be required sooner or later to rewrite source codes related to request parameter handling from scratch.
