Well, after re-reading the two somewhat conflicting RFC's both essentially 
say you can use '+' to encode space if the encoding appears in CGI 
information after '?' in a URL. Of course, that doesn't apply where the
authz token is sent as a property (i.e. under a header) and %20 is 
required. That said, we are mincing words here in practice. The property 
is presented as a CGI token in the end and in that context a '+' is a 
valid encoding. So, who isn't following the rules here?
