Those are the same format, so I can't quite understand your point there.

If you need to handle different kinds of authentication lookup, that depends on how you're doing authentication, but with LDAP you have whatever capability you want, really, you can use combinations of search filters and things like that. You need to either leverage the subject canonicalization features after authentication to get the username back out normalized into a consistent form or you would have to accomodate different types of username formats in the attribute resolver.

Well, my advice is to not to do that and use the IdP directly, I guess, but absent that it's not really an issue for me to weigh in on since it's not the IdP doing the authentication.
