[keycloak-dev] url problem with login/account mgmt

[Bill Burke]

Apps may want to have a link back to login, logout, and account 
management.  The problem is this link has the form of:

/realms/{id}

Where {id} is this huge generated id.  We do this because realm names 
may not be unique in multi-tenancy environments.  While our public cloud 
plans are to create a dedicated server instance for a company, we may 
want to support multi-tenancy in the future.  So I think this has to stay.

What sucks is how can an app developer find out this id?  We can show 
the ID in the admin console and/or even have a "base url" field for the 
realm with a "Copy to Clipboard" button.  The adapters could set 
HttpServletRequest parameters pointing to logout and acct mgmt URLs too. 
  Any other ideas/concerns?

Bill
