I would prefer Bron to answer that question, as they are the one who
started this email thread.

However let's look at GNAP, I've honestly been struggling to understand at
least one fully documented case that GNAP supports. It seems in every
document the only thing that is clear is GNAP wants to allow "everything",
doesn't actually talk about an example.

By NxM, I assume we mean that the end user or client is free to select
whichever AS they want, in a way which the RS can verify the AS credential
and the user identity, without the RS having to (and really without the
ability to limit) which AS are allowed.

Would you agree with that statement?
