In this case the specific goal was to get the upgrade out with as few 
changes as possible from our current configuration, in order to minimize 
the likelihood of behavior differences.  Just trying to reduce the scope 
of potential issue.

Now that we've got 3.3.0 in production, we plan to take a little more 
time to convert over to the native Duo and MFA flows, and probably do 
some more deV2ification of our other config files. Might get 3.3.1 out 
in prod first, though.

My understanding is that the new Duo/MFA stuff is capable of doing what 
we need, which right now is just honoring our custom 
RequestedAuthnContext and reporting it back as the used context. We're 
not doing anything user-specific, nor any fancy authn context mappings 
or such (yet).
