> The current SAML plugin is not well tested with major IdPs used in production 
> such as Shibboleth. It is also limited to using HTTP-redirect only and does 
> not support HTTP-Post and other artifacts. Further, the security concerns are 
> not well addressed, for example both authorization, creation of 
> users/accounts (on first login) and authentication is done by the plugin 
> which needs to be tested wrt security, addressed and improved.
