* Use terms from the config option, like "check", "access" and "force", to map more clearly between the wording of the config option and the text in this section * Explicitly mention what is being checked from a user perspective (do they have permission to access, according to the IdP)
this section provides further context for why an admin might enable this check, from a security perspective.

#1467 is completely unrelated, let's do it in a separate PR please. I'd like @edibotopic's opinion on the change first though.
