Ok, I see what you mean, not the same as what I thought.

Do you mean subjectId or subjectIdentifier?

Maybe we should just query the member table so we can get the list of 
subjectIds used in Grouper and not all subjectIds?  Plus, then we don't have 
to change the source implementations... just a thought.

e.g. at Penn, we have 540k subjects, but only 150k are used in grouper.  Btw, 
we don't delete from grouper_members I believe.

If we go down the road where we add this method to the source 
implementations, then we should note that in the upgrade steps so people with 
custom source implementation know to add that method in their upgrade.  I can 
do this easily in JDBC, if you can do it in ldap, then we are all set.  :)

Thanks,
Chris

Perhaps

Set<String> getAllSubjectsIdentifiers

which would return all identifiers, obviously one per subject. Similar to

Set<Subject> getAllSubjects

or an iterator would be fine too.
