A pointer on the REFEDS mailing list led me to this wiki page:

How to offer a service in eduGAIN
https://wiki.edugain.org/How_to_offer_a_service_in_eduGAIN

In particular, the following document is linked on the wiki page:

Enabling Users: Options for Joining eduGAIN
https://wiki.edugain.org/File:Options-for-Joining-eduGAIN.pdf

The above PDF document is specifically targeted at research
communities. The issues identified in the document are right on
target:

Current Issues
1.3.1 Lack of Identity Providers
1.3.2 Lack of Attributes
1.3.3 Lack of Level of Assurances
1.3.4 Lack of support for non-browser applications

You will, however, recognize these as general issues, not necessarily
interfederation-specific issues. In any case, the document is well
worth reading, I think.
