I do not know much of the JISC project. When you depend on attribute
certificates they have to be stored in the directory of the origin site.

With the proposed use case I would like to be independent of the
organizational directories of the origin sites. Virtual organizations
have minimal infrastructure. They have no own origin installation and no
write access to the directories of the origin sites of their users.
