A long outstanding issue on the Passport repo is the ability to add custom claims to issued tokens. However, atm league/oauth2-server currently does not provide an easy way to do this.
Until an easy way has been provided so we can add this natively to Passport, I recommend mentioning the laravel-passport-claims package. This will allow people to add their custom claims while we don't need to perform any changes right now in Passport.
The reason why I don't want to go down the path of adding these changes to Passport is because I don't want to diverge too far from the way league/oauth2-server works. It's best to wait until they provide the functionality for us to implement this easily.
