[Openid-specs-ab] IDP Hint for /authorization requests

[George Fletcher]

Hi,

I know I've mentioned this in the past and wanted to bring it up again. If
an OpenID Provider allows for federation with multiple IDPs, there are
times the client wants to "tell" the OP which of those federated IDPs to
use.

In a social login context, this can allow the client to specifically tell
the OP to use Facebook for authenticating this user. However, this pattern
is used in many other contexts.

Any interest in writing a very small spec to enable an 'idp_hint' parameter
that can be passed as part of the /authorization request? I suppose this
could also go to the IETF as it's not specific to ODIC.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
George
