I believe if you dig you will see that there is potential for IPR from both Apple and Facebook.

Could you kindly spell it out?

 From what I have been hearing, Facebook was just using fast application switch, which is nothing more than Self-issued thing that we have, and iOS's native login support given to facebook, twitter, and Weibo. 
Perhaps you are thinking of something else.

Of course, I could be complete wrong. I should probably read
    https://developers.facebook.com/docs/howtos/ios-6/
and
 
http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/Social/Reference/Social_Framework/_index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40012233

as well.

Having said that, if Apple's interface is not open, perhaps it is a task for an industry consortia like OpenID Foundation to go and ask Apple to open up the API for other IdPs as well. Do not know if they are going to listen, but still, it might be our duty to try.
