For the record, this is uncomfortably close to nested discovery ("Which Federation"->"Which Idp"->"Which Protocol"). This is
something which is currently frowned on. Do please try to avoid since it confused neophytes and adds extra clicks to the login
process.
(and, yes, I have done a discovery like that, but I was younger and more naive)
