[OpenID] user-initiated login

[Peter Williams]

Your articulating the case for unsolicited assertions, which the model specifically adopts. The tech standards just gives crappy advice and counsel on how to really achieve it, in an interoperable manner. This is probably because this case conflicts with other design goals, and it looks like folks decide to de-prioritize this feature in favor of what sp-initiated flow can bring. Such tradeoffs are fine: but you can always re-bias the game...

It did not break the authentication process to 
have an OP redirecting a user to my Consumer who, as far as my 
Consumer was concerned, had never been there before.
