I'd like to propose that proper support for multiple SAML NameIdentifier formats be added to the 2.0 TODO list for the AA. I'd be happy to implement this.

A related point is that Walter and I have both, somewhat independently, been
looking at different models for handling the NameIdentifier processing in
the AA, and will probably work on that at some point to generalize it more.
It's a bit tricky today to deal with multiple kinds of identifiers because
the format of the properties file is so limited.

I had to hack in support for my AA to deal with both transparent usernames
as well as the Shib style handles at the same time, which I needed
internally.
