This seems to be a nice summary of what Anders is trying to tell us for some
weeks now. And if you add a scope (I would also be worried by unscoped tokens
that can be replayed), the scope can be SOP or something even more
restrictive. For the moment, there is no way to express that. So just putting
an API that lets me talk to EMV is something Brad and Alex have rightly
criticised. But the current HASEC suggestion isn't proposing such an over
simplistic approach either.
