[Paul Madsen]

I like the box but confess the 'search' paradigm confused me initially

Sure.  One fine immediate large example is the Shibboleth 2 Wiki itself.  If you:



A) Go to https://spaces.internet2.edu/display/SHIB2/Home

B) Click "Login"

C) Start typing, e.g. "London", or "California", etc.



you'll see what the experience is like with a few thousand identity sources and an ugly GUI.  Combine that with some of the early imbedding work done by a variety of DS implementations (good example at http://www.switch.ch/aai/support/serviceproviders/sp-embedded-wayf.html ), and the Kantara-ULX GUI work, and I think the union will be a pretty good intermediate solution.

Take care,

Nate.
