I agree, but I didn't implement it that way, partially because I see  
my modifications as a temporary solution until the CAS group decides  
on how they want to handle this need (which has been voiced by  
several on this list).

I have documented the parameters that I return locally for the  
developers here at Dartmouth to use, it's just not done in an XML  
DTD. Honestly, that would really only benefit me, since I (or my  
group) is really the only one modifying the clients to extract those  
new params. Most of the developers just want a module or library they  
can call and just works.
