Was just wondering if there is any future development plans to make this extension work with pluggableauth 7.0?

I'm having issues with the Shibboleth extension that I'm debating over trying to manually patch (eg, starting with AuthManager:;singleton()
) vs using the SimpleSAML extension instead.
Given that Shibboleth isn't compatible with PluginAuth > 5.7, I presume it is likely not worth the effort.
When setting up Shibboleth to work with MediaWiki 1.39 and PluggableAuth 6.1extension, does it require that I installed/run the Shibboleth application locally on my machine to have it working? I don't see this part mentioned in the Extension:Shibboleth installation and configuration page. Thank you.
We receive an attribute from Shibboleth that is the user's completely unique ID in the InCommon system (i.e. username@institution.edu). This isn't a valid MediaWiki username. How can we transform it?
Having difficulty getting this extension to work properly, and I see that the authenticate() method always sets $id to null. This means that PluggableAuthLogin::execute always reacts as if it is a new user, setting all attributes to default, and notably, the PluggableAuthPopulateGroups hook is never run. Is this just broken or is there something I'm missing?
* Logout is not a Global logout. If user is SSO-logged on multiple systems other then mediawiki, when she logs out form another service mediawiki is not aware of (she is still in);
* if the browser is cors-enforcing (as of 2021 most of them are) the logout requires two clicks on the logout button. The first one warns about a network trouble because the cors pre-flight fails.
It seems, that the last code of the extension is on the gerrit (https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/admin/repos/mediawiki/extensions/Shibboleth). Is that right? The Extension Page links to the GitHub though.
