    Currently Microsoft has an External Authentication Method [1] in preview that allows 3rd party OIDC providers to provide Entra ID MFA for Azure based applications. The authorization call contains a signed id_token_hint that needs to be parsed and verified and requires the OP to return the authorization result as a form_post.
    It would be nice if the simpleSAMLphp OIDC module would support these requests.
