Proposal for Recycling Identifiers in OpenID 2.0

[Dmitry Shechtman]

 Dick,

This is definitely an interesting proposal. However, it only attempts to
solve the recycling problem, whereas canonical IDs would solve this and
several more.

As far as I can tell, this would break every existing 1.1 RP. When an
RP requests authentication it expects the returned identifier to match the
one it is trying to verify. However, it should work fine with 2.0 (thanks to
directed identity).


Regards,
Dmitry
