I agree that this should be standards track.

I agree that RFC Required is severe overkill.  Specification required or expert 
review would be fine.

I believe that we should delete the "please assign" functionality and require 
the registration to include the URN.  The defining specification should contain 
the URI to be registered.

I also agree that we need the "Specification document(s)" section of the 
template.  Authors, possibly see 
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-oauth-v2-28#section-11.1.1 for example 
wording to use.

The template is also missing the standard "Change controller" section.

Per your question (5) Stephen, possibly see the registrations in 
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-oauth-saml2-bearer-12#section-6.  
Authors, maybe using one of these as an example would help?

I think you're right that standards-track makes sense here.

Expert review seems fine; lighter processes are better here. If folks really 
want a spec, I'd prefer Specification Required to RFC Required or IETF Review.

It's also not clear to me what is meant by "The token URI that identifies the 
registered component."
