Not sure If it¹s possible for different SPs to agree on the specs for each
mode, but as we learned from implementing OpenID, it¹s very useful for the
client to have an interface to indicate to the AS how the UI should be
rendered. 

At least in Yahoo¹s case, we¹d like to see all the display modes you listed,
although I¹m unclear what ³none² is.
