Or something more optimized by changing the resolver to understand a multiple recipient context, but either way, the "requester" or "relying party" don't enter into it.
I like the multiple recipient context idea, something like
getRecipients() on the AttributeRecipientContext, to make it efficient
for the attribute resolver to resolve shared attributes. But that
seems like further stepping away from v2, and I'm not sure how far we
want to go in that direction.
