No, I haven't tried it (which is why I asked my original question) and
apparently you haven't either :-)

What I'm really looking for is a testimonial that this feature works
in a production setting without issue. It's not easy to test without
actually configuring an active SP, so I'm hoping that someone else has
already gone down this path.

Thanks,
