WebSphere OIDC JWT Token - Allow reading of Array Strings

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

Our dev ops platform is PCF (Pivitol Cloud Foundry) using its built in User Account and Authentication Service (UAA) - https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/api/uaa/version/76.24.0/index.html#overview. The JWT token that is generated by this service inserts claims as string values that are part of an array - example user_attributes.VID[0]. We are using WebSphere's built in OIDC RelyingParty interceptor to set the userIdentifier from this JWT token. Unfortunately, the provider_<id>.userIdentifier does not support reading array strings. We cannot support SSO between our PCF apps and WebSphere without being able to read these values. I tagged WAS Traditional, but we would also like this in Liberty as well. Let me know if you have any questions.

    Thank you for the suggestion. The requirement does have merit, but looking at it with respect to our total backlog of requests we do not see sufficient interest in this enhancement to merit delivery any time in the foreseeable future. Given the unlikelihood that we would deliver this, we are declining the request rather than leaving it in an uncommitted state for an extended period of time. If you would like to discuss this decision further, please contact Graham Charters <charters@uk.ibm.com>.
