Support well-known URLs for recursive lookups #5

Closed maxidorius closed 7 years ago

maxidorius commented 7 years ago

While doing a recursive lookups and contacting another identity server, support well-known URLs to discover where the service is located.

This provider would be the preferred remote implementation over all others, and would come just after the local connectors. At time of writing, this would be after LDAP lookup and before the DNS SRV lookup.

See RFC 5785 for reference.

After consideration, well-known URLs should be kept for clients, not for server. will not do.
