[OpenID] CheckIDRequest with Big AX

[Pat Cappelaere]

Martin,

I have been able to coerce my OP to do almost what I needed.
I submitted my consumer openid, did the discovery and forced a POST  
checkid_immediate with AX.

The server responded with the data I wanted but in the wrong output  
format.  It did not detect that I had done a POST and tried to  
returned to me the body of that stupid intermediate form thinking that  
it would overflow a GET.  But close.

So, could I suggest an additional attribute that could tell the OP  
what my preferred output format might be: xml, json... when in non- 
browser mode?

example: openid.format= xml | json

Pat.
