      From public comment: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/imi-comment/200904/msg00001.html

      Section 2.3 is much less clear then the rest of the document.

      lines 383-385 say:

      When following a chain of STSs, when an STS with an ic:RequireFederatedIdentityProvisioning declaration is
      encountered as per Section 3.2.1, this informs the Identity Selector that the STS is an IP/STS, rather than a
      member of the RP/STS chain.

      It is not clear what this means or what its significance is. If the intent is that the IP/STS marks the end of the chain, why not say so?
