Problem:
Direct and indirect messages have different formats. This adds
complexity for the developer. Specifically:
- some messages have parameters start with "openid.", others are
bare keywords.
- some messages have the namespace parameter, and others don't
openid.ns="http://openid.net/signon/2.0"
Proposal:
= All openid protocol parameters start with "openid."
= All messages have the parameter
openid.ns="http://openid.net/signon/2.0"
Benefits:
+ consistent for developers
+ all messages are versioned
Drawbacks:
- code changes
