But does not even ma.gnolia has passwords? (I must admit that I find
their login procedure for some reason confusing). And if you only
signin via openid, what do you do if your openid provider goes *poof*
? What is the best practice here? (sending an email in case you cannot
access your openid with some link where you can set a new one? But
that would us bring back to trusting your email provider
additionally).

Besides that, great news! Good to see OpenID spreading!
