Thank you for your hint and advice. We are currently on MediaWiki 1.26,
considering migration to 1.27 LTS and struggling a little bit with our SimpleSAMLAuth implemantation and the changes in session management of MediaWiki 1.27+. But this is another projekt. ;) Very helpful to know that there is a supported alternative which I will definitely look into. Best Ingo Mark A.
