That's not valid, unless you were mistaken about the case. The last
segment is "unspecified", not "Unspecified".

It's also not a good choice, but that aside.

You will have to encode with that format, and you will need to release
that attribute to the SP, and you will need to suppress/block release of
the normal transient and legacy formats by blocking release of the
transientId attribute to that SP.

But actually, I don't know that I'm correct about "unspecified" not being
usable in the precedence setting in the relying-party file. I think people
are doing that to make Google work.

I doubt they use an Attribute at all.

You are misapplying the legacy transient format. Stop doing that.

See above.
