For me it sounds like the "closest match" (even though it's quite 
different) in the OIDC-world would be the sequence specified at the 
section 4 of the OIDC core [1] ("Initiating Login from a Third Party"). 
Anyway, the login initiation endpoint is an RP feature and probably not 
implemented by many of them.

BR,
Henri.
