I have suggested before, and I will reiterate that we should define explicitly 
how to transport the token in an extensible way if extensions are desired.  I 
think we shoudl allow both of:

    Bearer b64token

and 


    Bearer token=<quoted string>


The first ensures compatibility with extant implementation, and the second 
provides definition for the basics where people want to extend it.

One possible syntax is:

Bearer access_token=xyz_-123,more_info=pdq

Ultimately though, the format of the bearer token is outside of the scope of 
the spec, and up to the participants to determine, including whether to use 
b64token syntax or params syntax.

Anyway, how do you then send credentials that include the bearer token plus 
additional parameters? Example, please.

Best regards, Julian
