I will state upfront that I know less about diameter than I do about Radius
so the questions I have are to be taken with that grain of salt.

1.  Is it possible to include a more general SAML query than just an
authorization request in a DER message?  Specifically, I would like to be
able to query for a set of attributes about the entity that was authorized
as oppose to get the fact they are authorized.

2.  Does Diameter give any way of sending the keys around that are to be
used for doing the xml encryption operation?  I understand that diameter is
more point-to-point than RADIUS but I do not know that to be a fact.  Does
this mean that there is more likely to have end-to-end signing and
encryption capabilities present?

3.  Is there a concept of proxies that sit on boundaries that could modify
the SAML constructs to deal with mapping of attributes?
