[OpenID] Google App Engine & python-openid

Hi all.

Google App Engine definitely seems like a nice thing to play with when  
creating 'cool yet small' 'next big things' but it has one limitation:  
it is Google specific and the User API talks about Google accounts and  
e-mail addresses, no OpenID whatsoever.

Does python-openid support GAE / does GAE support python-openid?

Reading the web leaves me thinking that a special url loader for  
python-openid is needed as well as custom DB backend.

Anyone working on this or has more insight - I'd love to hear about it.

Thanks,
Martin
