Not sure why RADIUS would be more suitable than Diameter for carrying large payloads such as SAML assertions.  The 4096 octet RADIUS PDU limit is not transport-specific -- that is, transporting the RADIUS payload over TCP does not solve the problem. 
 
[Tina: You are also right from the aspect you raised.
Diameter roaming model is well established (in use cases like WLAN-3GPP interworking) without the use of EAP or SAML. I fail to see what would be the benefits of using EAP or SAML with Diameter which the current roaming model does not already have.
Everything has pros and cons, as you said in another email, let's begin with a problem statement, and then protocols.]
