I'd think that a provider should document where they expect the
parameters, if they do not support all 3. If they do support all 3,
then they need to provide an order of precedence, that is if they even
allow putting oauth params at more than 1 method.

If you look at the editor's cut (http://oauth.googlecode.com/svn/spec/
core/unofficial/1.0ec/drafts/1/spec.html), it sheds a little more
light on this issue in section 3.4. A disclaimer here - the editor's
cut is not an official version, but you can co-relate the information
for reference and clarity.
