Yes, something like that. This came up recently at an Ops meeting (in
a different context). We talked about converting a raw XML entity
descriptor to data that would fit in our HTML form (which is how the
Federation Manager works today) and vice versa. In our case, it might
be better to focus on what we *do* want instead of what we *don't*
want.
