Agreed, it is currently worded "The form field's "name" attribute SHOULD
have the value "openid_identifier" as to allow User Agents to
automatically prefill the End User's Identifier when visiting a Relying
Party.".  A RP not doing this does not break the protocol itself.

# Modify 8.1 to:
# ...
#
# The form field's "name" attribute MUST have the value #
"openid_identifier" as to allow User Agents to automatically prefill #
the End User's Identifier when visiting a Relying Party.

This should be a SHOULD, not a MUST.
