Hey @aaronpk, is there a reason the device authorization grant doesn't specify long polling? Seems like potentially a lot of time and resources left on the table with interval polling.

There was some discussion on this a few years ago.

Generally, polling is not actually a resource problem (e.g. the YouTube app does it), and the simplicity of having just one method (polling) outweighed any theoretical benefits you'd get from long-polling or websockets.
