If you take on their metadata though then you're responsible for it. certificate expirations, security issues, contact information, etc ....

I would add it to their metadata; they've proven their metadata is wrong. Trusting incorrect metadata is pretty much the worst thing an IdP can do, so it's a given that their metadata should be locally managed and then you can correct it. This is why I don't allow remote metadata outside of InCommon and some local on-campus feeds.

That's it.

Of course, I wouldn't. I'd tell them to fix their SP unless they can justify the requirement and demonstrate an actual need.

If they want a DN for some good reason, the first problem I have is that I have no such thing to give them, but I would be especially wary of being asked to provide something that isn't a DN and simply mislabeling it. I do not do that under any circumstances. That's a standard violation.
