Well, I was referring to external commitments. Internally in the project, I'm aware that the IdP is getting special access, but I think it's unnecessary for us to somehow avoid taking special advantage. If we weren't making external commitments, we could avoid a library entirely.

We have control over both sets of code and we can make adjustments unilaterally. Other people can't, so it's for them I think we maintain the split.
