Description
Confluence uses Seraph as its 3rd party authentication mechanism, providing a simple configurable way for SSO solutions to be plugged into Confluence.
However, Confluence does make full use of the flexibility provided by Seraph. In particular, Confluence does not use the login.link.url property. Instead, login links are hard coded throughout the application. This means that any SSO solution that would like to update the login link needs to manually update the Confluence. This is no good.
We need to update Confluence to take its login link url from Seraph, allowing SSO solutions to configure the login page.
