Provide an AJAX call to verify a username/password against an IdP. Provide a bare UI with JavaScript to enter and verify a user.
Continue the account transfer flow with a second server-side script to actually invoke the account transfer. This script must redundantly check username/password to avoid an end around by a clever user. So check again, then invoke the clearinghouse service to swap the accounts.
Invoke swap_identities after re-verifying the username and password at the IdP.
Explain to the user what they can do with the page. Caution them that they'll lose access to current projects/slices.
Conditionalize this so that it can be omitted if the user is logged in from the GPO IdP.
After redirection, display a standard "last message" telling the user that their account has been transferred.
If the destination account (currently logged in) has projects, disallow the account transfer with a message. These users must either remove themselves from the projects or manually add this account to projects of which the source account is a member.
GPO user accounts cannot be the destination of an account transfer. Prevent this by never putting the transfer button on the profile page. Further, if a GPO user manually navigates to the transfer page, redirect them to the home page. Finally, if the GPO user invokes the do-transfer script manually, return an error code.

Provide a user interface for the account transfer clearinghouse API. Verify a user at the configured IdP, then perform the account transfer.
Accounts that are members of projects are ineligible for the transfer. The transfer is a swap of the internal ID, so the user would get disconnected from their projects. This is likely to be unexpected, so simply disallow it. It should be a rare case. These individuals can either migrate project membership manually (it's not hard) or remove themselves from their current projects and do the swap.
