> Currently all tokens are validated with a commonly configured type verifier.
> k8s projected tokens do not include a typ header, and so would fail
> verification. When token verification uses a TrustedOidcIssuer, registered as
> an external issuer, then skip typ validation. This will allow k8s projected
> tokens to be verified.
> In the future, if other types of external issuers are to be registered, the
> schema for the trusted issuer can be extended to include a flag controlling
> if typ verification is to be skipped, or optionally which verifier to use.
> But for now, this avoids having to dynamically update the list of issuers for
> which to skip type verification separately from the trusted oidc issuer
> registration.
