Yes, assuming you're using the in-memory cache plugins and not something
else.

I don't think that the in-memory listener will "just work" in 1.3 as there
are probably some issues getting things configured properly, but it's closer
to working code than any of the alternatives.

You would also need to make sure that all the various subsystems were
enabled in the ShibTargetConfig feature list, like Trust, the caches, etc.
Ordinarily only shibd enables them.

That depends on the settings. I know for a fact that it will warn on either
one if it's told to, I just tested that.

> Firefox does on POST.

Sorry, but it warns on GET too. I just verified that also. ;-)

Like I said, you're not any better off with Artifact. Same warning.
