It wasn't in my list of priorities to play with it at all since I didn't think it would be close enough to a real answer at this stage to be more than conceptual overhead.

I think at minimum you'd have to tackle the display name and description stuff also.

My suspicion is that the "right" API hub for this is IdPAttribute as the input object. It defers the question of how we're going to tie the layers together without precluding it just being getId().
