How does this solve the use case where sub-sessions are needed if session is tied to a single AssertionID ? Did I miss something ?

What happend if a SP send the request to the AS and the SA never responds or there is a timing issue in processing requests ? How does the Principal know the outcome ? Not sure that I would trust a SP to terminate sessions held by a SA.
