True, but I've run into some non-shibboleth SP's (though, I now see
the OP's *is* shibboleth) that try to send various ACS urls that
weren't specified ahead of time. Shibboleth rightly rejects these (I
guess you *could* choose to trust them if the request was signed
though).

Also, testshib does set this attribute ;)
