The reuseCondition property of the AuthenticationFlowDescriptor objects in general-authn.xml governs reuse of a method regardless of timeouts or any other criteria. It was put there partly for other reasons but a side effect is that it makes all of it dynamically controllable.

The ForceAuthn flag is also overrideable now by profile configuration / relying party, which means it's also pluggable with a strategy function that can make decisions based on more than just the service if it has to. I'll have to see if I updated the profile configuration summaries that mention a lot of the common options with that.

On top of that the MFA scripting engine has full control anyway so it can forcibly do whatever it wants in the end.
