Close, since PR is merged. |
In the Security and Privacy Guidelines/Best Practices, we should provide explicit guidance on which flows to use when. In particular, the "client" flow is the only one suitable when a human is not in the loop. This is particularly important for automated scenarios. We also want to state that scripts (using the Scripting API) should NOT be involved in security negotiations; this needs to happen "outside" such scripts.
