SAML and salesforce

I am a question concerning your SAML decision

(ref : http://blog.sforce.com/sforce/2005/07/sforce_single_s.html)

I am full agree with you concerning the SAML issue to implement SAML when you are a SaaS website, but you wrote "Supporting SAML on our website would have been easy. ".

What did you mean with supported SAML would have ben Easy
are you talked about supported SAML document ? accept an SAML RESPONSE assertion only?

How could you easily implemement SAML if you cannot define which Identity provider requested ? Any of your customers will have a specific identity provider/management, and the inital (first) request do not provide you the user, so you cannot find the identity provider....

So how supported SAML in your website would have been easy  ?

Thanks
