ISSUE:[UC-8-0*:Intermediaries*]

I am baffled that this has not generated more discussion.  The role of
intermediaries and security on XML Protocol has been going on for months
now.

I would have liked to see more discussion on our domain model/abstract model
on this concept.  I show the following links to illustrate XP's discussion
of intermediaries as it seems extremely relevent.

There is a good definition of an XP Intermediary, which seems equivalent to
a SAML intermediary:
