Yes agreed.  From a usability pioint of view, I think it is important that any such gluing makes it clear to the end-user that they are entering the username as shorthand for their OpenID, rather than simply entering a username per se.

That way it should be clearer to them that they can re-use their OpenID elsewhere.
