That somewhat explains why I've had difficulty following some of your
messages but I'm still not totally clear why you're singling out the
artifact flow. Exactly the same problem arises regardless of the
flow...the SP needs metadata to validate the assertion, regardless of
how it obtains the assertion (either by reference or by value). Why is
this issue coming up at this late date? (Sorry, I'm afraid I still
don't get it.)
