The JSON reference really needs to be to RFC 7159, not 4627. (blocking, but trivial issue)
There should be some mention of the prior art in this space. Pingbacks and trackbacks at least. Please differentiate this approach from them, so we have an idea if we need to do this also. Many Wordpress sites get nuked pretty quickly when they leave pingbacks on; pointing out the linkage is important so that the industry at least learns from some of the attacks that have worked in the past. Section 4.5 "Limit access to protected resources" points out that this protocol is an attractive nuisance. Anyone who deploys it is likely to make their infrastructure more insecure by mistake. If there's a good reason to publish this that isn't obvious, I might be more excited about it. > On Nov 3, 2016, at 7:25 PM, L.
