[Idschemas] identity schema element metadata: using existingspecifications

[Nat Sakimura]

Hi,

Instead of having one single master copy at the IdP, I would prefer one 
single piece of each information disparsed over the network (optionally 
with opaque identifiers) and having IdP managing the "links" so that I 
can control all the pieces from one place. I feel that having everything 
at one place is too risky.
