Well we could argue that with Wasp we are already on our way to do
that :) after all the main power of acegi is providing hooks to
implement your own AA. Swarm can be regarded as a reference
implementation.
The fact that acegi also comes bundled with a lot of implementations
for AA against all sorts of services is something we also strife for
however for that we will be needing help from the community :)

At the moment there is nothing out of the box other than our coupling
with acegi. But i am confident that with the api that is available it
will be possible for you to build your own, perhaps if it is ready you
can contribute it to the community.
You could provide a mapping between Swarm and SiteMinder or you can
build your own Wasp implementation that connects directly to a
SiteMinder server.
