PS.  Note that there does not *have* to be a real query involved (e.g.
the IdP can have some out-of-band knowledge that the SP would want
some data returned and can return it as if the SP had queried it).

Not that their can't be a query, just that there are situations
where there is not an explicit query and the IdP may return
such attributes in an AuthnResponse.
