Title: Credentials Collector proposal for SAML 2.0...
Looks good overall.
My main comment is that there is one important use case where model 2.3 (CC as
local authenticator) may be the only possibility. SSL mutual authentication in
web servers is almost always buried in the server, so it may not be possible for
the AA to get itself into the middle of the proof-of-possession conversation.
This leaves a sort of in-between trust model, where the AA can do the
certificate validation but needs to trust that the CC has correctly done the
proof of possession.

[security-services] Credentials Collector proposal for SAML
2.0...
Hi all,
I've finally gotten around to
updating and filling out the Credentials Collector proposal. I've tried
to take into account the brief discussions a few of us have had so far on this
topic. Further comment/discussion is welcome, on the list and perhaps in
an upcoming concall.
Carlisle.
