IIRC, when things are set up as they were directed to be right now, the location of the CAS client will end up being usable in an attribute filter policy rule to control attribute release.

It's TBD to allow use of SAML metadata to indirect that relationship (i.e. identify the CAS RP symbolically across potentially many CAS client URLs).

It's not really about identifying that CAS is being used here, but about how the CAS support is integrated with the relying party machinery in the IdP and how it identifies the RP in that profile.
