First off, I'm very enthusiastic about OpenID and it's potential.  Someone
pointed me at this article, and I think the general OpenID audience should
read it so we're all familiar with OpenID's weaknesses (and strengths) so we
can develop it better in the future.

I haven't read it all yet, but it seems to me that X.509/InfoCards at the OP
+ raw OpenID at the RP is a killer combination that totally solves the
phishing and security problems inherent in today's OpenID.
