This thread [0] isn't the place to debate how useful OpenID is for
those who choose to use it.
I invite anyone interested in knowing how the distinct areas of
identity, trust, and security intersect with the OpenID system, to
research the available documentation.
[0] Not least because we're talking about adding OpenID authentication
to an entirely optional service that is currently used quite happily
by people without *any* assurance of identity, let alone security.
