Apparently deep linking only works using IdP initiated SSO in Ping's 
implementation 
(http://documentation.pingidentity.com/display/SFC/SP-Initiated+SSO+via+Deep+Linking). 
We can argue how clumsy it is, but it's possible.  To many legacy 
enterprise applications, IdP initiated SSO may be the only SSO option, 
not just to Salesforce.
