Thanks for the quick
response Scott. Let me make sure that I understand your
answer.
You are saying, "Not
all profiles listed in the Profile Specification depend on the involvement of a
browser". Is that correct?
Would it be fair to say that "most" of the
profiles listed in the Profile Specification depend on the involvement of a
browser?
Thanks.

Yeah, since I said "and your use case isn't simple SAML
queries".

I overlooked it, but it's
analagous to a query, and it's a very little used
profile.
