that's what I thought. Is there any reason it wouldn't release an attribute even if the attribute appeared as:

<Rule>
<Target>
<AnyTarget></AnyTarget>
</Target>
<Attribute name="urn:mace:dir:attribute-def:eduPersonTargetedID">
<AnyValue release="permit"></AnyValue>
</Attribute>
</Rule>

I wonder if you could answer a Q for me about the IdP and the way it
releases attributes. I think in the old days, it released whatever it
had but I've heard reports that it releases what an SP asks for. I
thought AttributeDesignator was used for that but long ago was told
its use was discouraged. Are attributes released declaratively, i.e.
via an ARP or does an SP have to specifically request attribute names
in an attribute request?

An ARP is a filter against the set of attributes requested. If an SP doesn't
supply any, then the set is "*".
