Replace, no. Add support for, yes.
We do see good reasons to support the new profile, amongst them the
ability to handle multiple authentication request and response profiles
at the same time, plus things like encrypted or signed authentication

There are no plans to give up support for the original Shibboleth
profile, and I suspect there isn't really any reason to even consider it
in the foreseeable future. If we ever did consider dropping support for
that profile, there would be plenty of notice.
