Actually I am implementing SP, and the replay checking is mostly for
assertion replays. Also with an LB on top of the hosts, per node cache
doesn't really work.
I'm not requesting a feature, but more just curious of the decisions.
Also, what is your reason for not implementing SP? I understand there's a
SP package implemented by shib, but is there any other reason for that?
