+/**
+ * ValidatorAccessTokenValidator is an implementation of {@link 
AccessTokenValidator} that is used
+ * by the broker to perform more extensive validation of the JWT access token 
that is received

Review comment:
       Yes and no.
   
   The `AccessTokenValidator` interface is used by both client and broker, but 
the `ValidatorAccessTokenValidator` implementation is specifically designed to 
only be used on the broker while the `LoginAccessTokenValidator` is used as the 
client implementation. 
   
   The reason for this is that on the broker we have the ability to bundle 
utility libraries (like jose4j) that allow `ValidatorAccessTokenValidator` to 
perform more thorough validation of the JWT. We intentionally want to keep the 
client dependencies lightweight, so `LoginAccessTokenValidator` only performs 
basic parsing and sanity checking on the JWT.
   
   I made an attempt to document this rationale in the `AccessTokenValidator` 
interface documentation. Let me know if there's something more specific I 
should put in there.
