Right. We touched on this very briefly in China I think. There was
a discussion about the need to incorporate attribute authorities
that are separate from identity providers in the model. In the
WebSSO case this corresponds to an entity that (only) implements
attribute SAML query (typically using the SOAP binding).

In WebSSO land (and I suspect this will be true for abfab aswell)
there are different schools of thought as to how such attribute
authorities become part of an authentication flow. One school
favors proxy IdPs and one prefers having the service provider
query the AA directly. Both have their benefits and drawbacks.
