Reading SAML2Core section 2.3, would it be cleaner to use
AssertionURIRef instead, defining some namespace for this purpose?

Thinking aloud, might there also be some advantage in using the SAML URI
Binding rather than the Assertion Request Profile? The SAML URI Binding
is somewhat more lightweight.

Is there any harm in processing or decorating it such that we can obtain
the kinds of semantics we've been discussing?
