Not that we don't want to, just that it's more than is required.
The minimum requirement is to be able to exchange an attribute value
assertions between Homesites and Membersites. That's enough to
exchnage self-asserted values, either simple types as literals or
complex
types as XML.... and also enough to exchange third-party asserted
values as digitally signed values, which could be XML-DSIG.
So, if required, could be layered on top, but don't need to be in the
lowest layer of protocol, lest they hamper adoption, which we at
Sxip found that they did.
