🔎 Previews:

What does this solve?

We have had many users come across the "Clerk as an OAuth2/OIDC IDP" feature and reasonably assume that this meant that Clerk will run a full OAuth2 server for your app which handles not only initial authentication, but also handles subsequent request authorization to API endpoints within your application.

What changed?

At the moment, this feature only handles initial authentication, and that was not clear in the docs, so I added a section to clarify this.
