[OpenID] OpenID + Certs

We are starting to see more sites that serve OpenIDS and use certificates
for client-side SSL.
This is good news.  What would even be better would be to make the user cert
available in the sreg optional attributes for more stringent consumers.
This would allow me to validate a user's belonging to a specific
organization for instance if he agrees of course.  This would allow certain
sites to release more sensitive information for Humanitarian Assistance
and/or Disaster Relief in my case.
Could this be added easily?
Does this make sense?
Wdyt?
