Following up my own post, a similar enough question was posted a few years
ago here:
http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/keycloak-user/2014-November/001145.html
which resulted in the creation of the jira issue here:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/KEYCLOAK-825

What was the outcome of that jira ticket?  I signed up to the jboss dev
community in hopes I could check on my own but it appears I don't have
perms.

Thanks!
Seann
