The BaseIDAbstract is an abstract type usable only as the base of a derived type. It includes the following attributes for use by extended identifier representations: NameQualifier [optional] The security or administrative domain that qualifies the identifier. This attribute provides a means to federate identifiers from disparate user data stores without collision. SPNameQualifier [optional] Further qualifies an identifier with the name of a service provider or affiliation of providers. This attribute provides an additional means to federate identifiers on the basis of the relying party or parties.
