getting desired value into nameID

SP’s metadata in my local cache, yes. And I’ve run these 3 variations:


   - all 4 policies
   - no policies
   - only the emalAddress policy

With what seems to me the appropriate combination of configs:

   - no NameIDFormat elements in the SP metadata (all removed and verified
   by log message indicating metadata specifies “[]” format(s)]
   - saml-nameid generated from eduPersonPrincipalName with emalAddress
   format, triggered by this entityID
   - relying party override for this SP entityID to set
   nameIDFormatPrecendence to emailAddress

the SAML Subject is the long opaque transient ID (with
nameid-format:transient) - that is, not using ePPN, not in emailAddress
format.

If I remove the relying-party override for no very good reason other than
desperate variation, then NO nameID at all is in the SAML Subject.
