I'd prefer to call them user at REALM OpenIDs. The concept of using this
format is not only used for email but also for other types of
identifiers such as RADIUS zones or Kerberos realms.
For example, user at EXAMPLE.COM could be a RADIUS login, a Kerberos
principal and a Yadis ID/OpenID but not an email address.
