DataConnector Implementation

Hi all, I've developed a custom DataConnector based in Shibboleth Ldap
connector, but instead of accessing a LDAP source, it will access a rest
service that will merge several datasources (ldap, databases, etc).
Everything is working fine, but I don't understand one thing, when the
connector is invoked after succesful login, I can not find any reference in
any context or subcontext to the list of attributes requested (from my own
DataConnector implementation)..
My concern is that I want different policies for different Service
Providers, so after SSO each one receives a different subset of attributes
from the user information. But If I don't receive the list of attributes I
have to dispatch at that point (at DataConnector), seems that I'm always
forced to retrieve all of the attributes and then the subsystem of xml
files for filtering will take care of dispatching the appropiates
attributes to the invoking SP. Is this true? or I'm missing something? In
case it's true, would not be desirable in terms of performance to retrieve
only the attributes needed at DataConnector?
Thanks in advance for your help.
