REST API - OATH2 both ways - Inbound and Outbound

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

OATH2 is supported in outbound but not inbound.
As an enhanced security protocol, it would be nice to have OATH2 inbound also supported.
Currently inbound we have to use APIKeys only.

Security standard requirements demand OATH2 both ways for API connections

Example:

As part of the project to migrate from Maximo EAM SAAS to MAS we have and agreed architecture that all API calls between our ACE/APIC middleware and MAS will use Oauth connections (client_credentials flow). 

Our APIC/ACE environment has Oauth endpoints and we have been able in DEV to switch the endpoints on for all our Maximo Publish channels to use OAuth to obtain a token from IBM endpoint  and connect to IBM ACE.

However we also need ACE to be able to send data MAS using OAuth endpoints rather than Basic Auth which we us for current SAAS environment.

How can we configure MAS to allow access to Enterprise Services and Rest endpoints (/maxrest and /oslc) via OAuth? Does Maximo Application Suite on Cloud have an offered/recommended identity provider or can we use the same IBM identity provider that our APIC platform is using?
