Hi,

Is there a way to change the OAuth2 client secret without changing the 
client ID?

>From what I can see, the only option is to generate a new client ID and 
secret together, meaning any refresh tokens obtained against the old client 
ID are effectively useless.

If that is the case, what's the point of having a separate ID and secret? 
Surely they should just be a single property of the application.

This appears to be a design flaw with separating authentication from 
authorization. I can't periodically change the client secret as a security 
best practice (like changing your password on a regular basis) without 
having to get all my clients to re-authorize me.
