Any captive portal that is newly adopting the CAPPORT API will hopefully be testing the setup in the new model, and will have to think about which URLs to map to different user experiences.
A page that only says "you're logged in!", and has no way of adding more time, etc, is in my opinion a relatively useless page. If we provide a separate URL for remediation, it would seem to encourage such a design. Not including this would hopefully urge the portal design to a cleaner model. I do think the boolean is nice for highlighting to the captive portal deployer that they should think about remediation. I'd be more ok with that model, although it could also be an extension as we gain experience in deployment.
