I noticed that complication in the CAS protocol work. I would favor
changing it to get dotted notation working.

That leads to references like flowScope._idp_profileRequestContext,
which looks strange to my Java eyeballs due to the leading underscore.
Do you really need a namespace prefix? I would think simply
profileRequestContext would be sufficient.
