Nathaniel,

Yes I like the idea and hopefully token-preauth mechanism can benefit from it. Thanks.

It doesn't provide mutual authentication since only KDC is authenticated to client with the configured certificate of KDC and client doesn't due to lacking of certificate as to avoid the deployment overhead in our solution. So protecting the token here in AS-REQ exchange mainly depends on the FAST tunnel and client should be careful about the armor ticket.
