The trust spi needs to support the mapping of one identity to another. SPENGO is an example of a full authentication sequence, not a trust decision. When I think of a trust spi, I'm thinking of having an identity/subject from one authentication domain and I need to map it to the current domain. Currently you have to have the full authentication info for the target domain. A trust spi allows one to query if and what the target domain identity is without performing full reauthentication.
