What part exactly do you think v3 won't support?

We will support the IdP releasing all attributes and allowing users to
consent to them. The only thing that isn't on the roadmap is a UI that
has per-attribute checkboxes because, as you said before, we don't have
a high degree of confidence that we can make this intelligible.

My view, and what I've repeatedly told people, is that if they think
they can create a better UI to please do so. I'd be more than happy to
have a better UI that does more in a more understandable. Programmers,
myself included, suck at creating UIs.
