I'm the last person to care, but the last two options seemed attractive to
me, and separating out this stuff into its own space seems like a pretty
useful concept. That would seem to help with the issue Walter raised about
whether you can depend on consistent IdP behavior, since you could
conceivable package some of the code you wanted invariant and reference that
instead of the raw source.
