                 Key: SSPCPP-424
                 URL: https://issues.shibboleth.net/jira/browse/SSPCPP-424
             Project: Shibboleth SP - C++
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Configuration, Request Processing, SAML 2.0 Single Sign-On, Session Initiation
    Affects Versions: 2.5
            Reporter: Terrence G Fleury
            Assignee: Scott Cantor
            Priority: Minor


Motivating use-case: Before the SP requests authnContextClassRef=silver from an IdP, it is good practice to scan the configured metadata to see if the IdP has been certified at silver. However, this requires extra programming on the part of the SP developer. It would be nice if the SP software itself could be configured to add the authnContextClassRef=silver parameter automatically for those IdPs which have been certified at silver.

In broader terms, it would be nice if the SP's behavior could change based on the presence/absence/values of certain attributes in metadata.
