My only real comment (aside from the ongoing metadata discussion hopefully
resulting in a TC-approved extension) is the use of NameQualifier. I find it
a fairly nasty source of interop headaches and we've been trying to
de-emphasize it in Shibboleth, at least until 2.0 when it's a little more
precisely defined.

For an X.500 DN subject, I think I'd omit it or leave it "ignorable" to
maximize interop with other SAML products. They seem to be pretty arbitrary
about using it.
