No, certainly not that I'm aware, unless it's in a header being used for other things and it's stomping on that because it needs to set one itself. Module ordering in Apache is also undefined, so that makes some things impossible too.

No, I'm saying they either reject SAML outright, or they rely on the overall session with the browser to secure anything happening inside it rather than trying to secure service calls inside it.
