Great.

Can we agree that the expectation stated above is reasonable (at least for

Personally I have a hard time agreeing to this. I tend to desire serving the
80% use cases first, and once those are adequately addressed, then I look to
see if I can make the experience more tolerable for the remaining 20%.

If the OpenID community collectively had infinite resources, then I might
gladly agree, but that is not the case, therefore when it comes to setting
priorities, I tend to think that warming a snail shell's worth of water with
a magnifying glass won't get me any closer to raising the temperature of the
ocean by a single degree.
