Description

Currently, a user who authenticates for the first time to a "local" cluster using their existing account at a "remote" cluster (their "home" cluster) is automatically activated if
  • Their account is active at their "home" cluster, and
  • "Auto-activate new users" is enabled on the local cluster.

Otherwise, the user lands in an inactive account.

Options:
  • auto activate federated remote accounts
  • allow specific approval and activation of remote accounts (??? does this mean current behavior?)

Proposed behaviors

  • Auto activate: list of cluster ids for which it honors the "is_active" flag (current behavior is to ignore the is_active flag and use the local cluster's autoactivate policy)

Very clear documentation! I would add a test to check for the negative case (users from non trusted clusters aren't auto-activated), is that implicitly proved on preexisting tests?
Apart from that, LGTM.

Yes that's covered already, I added a check to an existing test that is_active is false:

Apart from that, LGTM.

Thanks!
