I would like to bring to the attention that the IETF rtcweb WG has 
developed a proposal for enabling tying an Identity Provider into a RTC 
session. Look at e.g. 
<http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-rtcweb-security-arch/?include_text=1>. 
In the current agenda proposal this is to be discussed at the Wed rtcweb 
session in Paris.

IMO it would be good to have feedback on this from the W3C Web Security 
activity (even though Identity now seems to have more or less vanished 
from the activity proposal).

Stefan Håkansson, webrtc WG co-chair (webrtc is the W3C counterpart of 
the IETF rtcweb WG).
