I think the discussion dates back to the earliest assumptions about the V3
config changes. I don't think we've talked much about relying-party.xml
since we made the switch back to compatibility with the existing files for
the most part.
I haven't looked at the schema or thought about how we might introduce
pluggability there, if we can.

I'm not sure what you mean by Java code here. We don't do anything but
entityID lookup for trust purposes, if that's what you mean.
