My first Idea was, to make the user able to choose attributes for
transmission in uApprove. Without any Attributes should be an exception.
To use some kind of NameID is a new aspect.
In this context is the RequstedAttribute tag in
AttributeConsumingService working? I tried it but without success. I
didn't saw the requested Attribute list in the IdP. (Should make sense
to mark the Attributes in uApprove.)
