Can you elaborate on your use-case?
We have some plans to introduce a step-up-authentication mechanism. The
main idea is to have the concept of authentication levels. In the
authentication flows there would be additional metadata that would set the
authentication level. This means the authentication level can be set
independently to authenticators and authenticators doesn't even have to be
aware of it.
In summary a login flow would look something like:
* Username/password form
* Set authentication level = 1
* OTP form
* Set authentication level = 2
Behind the covers the authentication processor would know at which point in
the flow it's possible to exit the flow depending on the level requested.
The level requested would be base on:
* Realm default
* Client default
* Client requested
It would also support the client being able to initially request for level
1 then later ask for level 2. The authentication processor would it that
case be able to skip the parts of the flow that was previously executed.
We also had an idea about allowing alternative flows depending on what
level you are going from and to. This could be relevant if authenticators
allow collecting more than one thing on a single form. For example there
could be alternative authenticators for username-only, username+password,
username+password+otp. This would be done by having conditions on which
flow to select.

We're in the process of adding support for different levels of

our custom installation, which means that proper support for acr and
acr_values is becoming more of a priority. What's the status on this? Can
we assist with a PR?

This might fit better into keycloak-user, but if you already have plans for
acr-stuff, or planned refactorings that would affect how this is
implemented, I'd be happy for some advice on how to proceed with a
temporary solution.
