I'd also note, BTW, that you *still* don't need a flag for this. If I set
IsPassive and ask for a persistent ID back, an IdP is free to refuse and
return an error telling me that he needed to prompt the principal for
consent because no identifier exists yet. At which point the SP can decide
what it wants to do.
