I just added IDP-309 to capture the IdP work item to do whatever is needed
in the filters to match OpenSAML.

One open question is whether it is worth throwing in a log.warn in the
spring parsing when it meets one of these filters? I can see the value but
it may become aggravating to some users to see these when there's little
they can do about it. AFAIR SWITCH use these a lot (and their use is/was
hierarchical) so all their users would end up getting warning on a regular
basis.
Do we need to start talking to the [big] federations about this?
