eduPersonTargetedId

"The second use for these features involves the "eduPersonTargetedID" SAML
Attribute, which contains a SAML <NameID> XML element in its value rather
than just a string. The attribute use case is itself generally deprecated
because SAML 1 itself is a legacy standard and because the use of the
attribute in SAML 2 is redundant. However, at present there is no
replacement mechanism for this use case, so the deprecation is more
centered around the use case than the planned removal of these features."

Quick question -- more out of curiosity -- can the 'eduPersonTargetedID' be
configured to be sent as a string ---- or always NameID?

Is there an alternate standard for sending persistent id as string?
