That sounds like it would provide flexibility so that Password method of
initial-authn is not assumed, which is what we need. I'm unclear what
happens on the second pass through the authn subsystem; is there a flag
that prevents duplicate processing by the actual auth mech?

You mean the case where a flow can't be found due to unsatisfied
RequestedPrincipalContext? If that's what you mean, I don't see why it
would matter. It would fail on the second round anyway and amount to the
same result afaict.

I hadn't filed an issue on it yet, you can if you think it's useful.

I'm happy to file an issue and help test if I can get clear on mechanics.
