[OpenID] Open Id and Cookie

[Nat Sakimura]

Actually, something simlar to this has been done in the Liberty Alliance.

The way it works is that the domains in the circle of trust shares one 
server with multiple domains (i.e., the domain of the member of the 
circle of the trust) , and effectively sharing the cookie.
