+### Styling information as an alternative to `brand`
+
+The `brand` field is intended to allow clients to style "login" buttons according
+to the identity provider in question. For example, a mobile application might
+show:
+
+![login buttons](images/2858-login.png)
+
+Some identity providers have very specific rules about how such buttons should
+be presented, so a fine level of control is important.
+
+An alternative way to achieve this would be for the server to give full details
+about the styling: icon, font colour, border colour, background colour,
+etc. However, this soon becomes unscalable. For example, it might be desirable
+to offer each logo at a range of resolutions to suit different screen sizes.
+Likewise, some brands need different styling depending on the background
+colour, so a complete second set of colours must be specified to account for
+dark or light themes.
+
+## Potential issues
+
+ * New Identity Providers added by server administators will be unbranded until
+   clients adopt support for the new brand.
