         * In theory, client authentication is not required for public clients, only for confidential clients.
         * See e.g. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#page-38. Ghost has no differentiation for this at the moment.
         * See also See https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#section-2.1.
         *
         * Ghost requires client authentication for `grant_type: password`, because we have to ensure that
         * we tie a client to a new access token. That means `grant_type: refresh_token` does not require
         * client authentication, because binding a client already happened.
         *
         * To sum up:
         *   - password authentication requires client authentication
         *   - refreshing a token does not require client authentication
         *   - public API requires client authentication
         *      - as soon as you send an access token in the header or via query
         *      - we deny public API access
         *   - API access with a Bearer does not require client authentication
