That seems rather dumb to do, but yes, I suppose so.
 
This question has been answered. We don't support either the third party
extension nor a UI to initiate SSO from inside the IdP. Sorry, that's life
at the moment. What we do support is a coherent approach for initiating SSO
from an SP from outside that SP, which IMHO is rather more useful since it
doesn't require that the IdP guess as to the contents of that request.

If you want a new feature, we have a system for requesting it. Like all open
source projects, the odds of getting it are proportional to the amount of
code you supply to implement it.
