Tim,
I am working on the AuthnContext, and the mapping of SAML authentication
methods to either the AC schema itself, or where possible, appropriate
authentication context classes. I am working on a new draft of the
document, and believe it will deal with your concerns as we've discussed
in this thread.
Cheers,
