[OpenID] Configuration file for OpenID libraries?

[Nat Sakimura]

I agree that these would be useful. At the same time however, I feel
that creating something like "Reputation Service Extension" to the
OpenID spec. so that sites are able to filter dynamically is better
than ad hoc static filtering using white and black list. I think it
fits the "Openness" philosophy of OpenID better as well.
