Looks good!

In addition (or instead of) requiring the token and verifier to be
suitable for manual entry "If the Service Provider knows a Consumer to
be running on a mobile device or set-top box" , wouldn't be a
sensible thing to require that every time the oauth_callback is set to
"oob" as that ought to be a safe way to tell the consumer able to
receive a callback from those that will require manual operations? It
may remove a bit of uncertainty when dealing with different kinds of
consumers...

This would impact:
- The wording in 6.2.3: "If the value of the oauth_callback parameter
was oob, case sensitive, then the Service Provider SHOULD ensure that
the generated Request Token is suitable for manual entry"
- The note in 6.2.1: "If the the value of the oauth_callback parameter
was oob, case sensitive, then the Service Provider SHOULD ensure that
the User Authorization URL and Request Token are suitable for manual
entry"
- And it could be added to 6.1.2: "If the value of the oauth_callback
parameter was oob, case sensitive, then the Service Provider SHOULD
ensure that the generated Request Token is suitable for manual entry".

what do you think?
