RequestedAuthnContext: Comparison type

[theo-beers]

Comparison type for RequestedAuthnContext is currently fixed on 'exact'. It would be great if it was configurable as:

• better
• exact
• maximum
• minimum

If there's interest in this, first link to the part of the SAML spec where this is behavior is mentioned.

Second, provide a complete PR to implement it, including code, test and docs.

There are no maintainers here waiting to implement feature requests for others.

The attribute is specified in the SAML 2.0 Oasis docs (pdf) at: 3.3.2.2.1 Element

I might put some effort into creating a PR, but not before issue #181 is accepted and merged.

Here's the link to the docs I was referring to:

#181 has been superseded by #298

[markstos]

@tjbeers #298 has been merged with multiple authentication context support and is planned to be replaced soon. Are you or @cjbarth interested in adding support for the comparison options supported by the SAML spec?

[cjbarth]

At this time, I'm not.

[theo-beers]

Same. But I'm not saying never
