I'm confused. I suspect that's because either the SP or the IdP can do
the standalone attribute query for additional attributes. ScottK, I'd
be interested in knowing which of the two cases you're interested.
(You may have tried to describe it earlier but I'm afraid I didn't get
it.)

ScottC, again correct me if I'm wrong, but regardless of what entity
does the query, the standalone AttributeAuthority MUST be represented
in metadata as specified in the extension spec. Right?
