This exchange is interesting:

No, it's required to if it supports the profile.

-- Scott

I think you are saying that websso profile requires an sp to process
unsolicited responses. That is, if I use my current products console to
disarm support for handling at the sp unsolicited responses then the
installation is no longer delivering the websso profile: its delivering my
own (operational) sub-profile. It should not be considered conforming to the
websso profile.

Is that a fair summary?
