[OpenID] Problems with delegation and directed identity OPs

How does someone delegate their OpenID URL to Google?

Putting following into the <head> section of the OpenID page:

<link rel="openid2.provider" href="https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/ud" />

seems to allow *any* user with a Google account to sign in with the 
delegated OpenID.
