We may have a good use case at UF.  I have a meeting on WEdensday about this issue we are facing.    Perhaps,

This is a method for us to explore solving a problem we are having..

The MACE-Social Identity Working Group (https://spaces.internet2.edu/display/socialid/Home) is beginning trials with two approaches to adding support for social identity providers to our SAML SPs.  One is a social2SAML gateway, and Paul Caskey of UT System is standing up a trial gateway.  The other is leveraging functionality new to the Shib SP in version 2.5 (release candidate now available) that allows authN plugins that would facilitate adding social IdPs to an SPs supported modes of authentication.  See
https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/SHIB2/NativeSPBackDoor

I am hoping people who wish to try the Shib SP "back door" approach to integrating Social IdPs will respond to this email with a statement of interest.  As of this moment, Chris Hubing at the University of Pennsylvania and Keith Hazelton (UW-Madison and Project Bamboo) are committed to trials of such Shib SP-based solutions.  Chris has an implementation configured and working and intends to document his approach once he irons out a couple issues.

       Looking forward to hearing from interested parties,   --Keith Hazelton
