[OpenID] Consumers storing data againat an OpenID

Has it ever been considered that a consumer of an OpenID may wish to store
some attributes data against that user?

 

In other words rather than storing it locally (and doing the work required
to achieve this) a trusted consumer may have "write" abilities which would
allow them to store some information important only to them against the
OpenID?

 

For example you may log in and be directed to a site who may wish to store
the local username they use for you with the OpenID so they can get it as
one of the attributes next time - or (as someone recently asked me) store
the local school they are to be associated with under their domain.

Steven
