[OpenID] Proxying (with OpenSocial) through experimental.openid.net to promote OpenID

Agreed. I was trying to come up with a way for users to subvert their 
social networking site's decision to ignore OpenID, then leverage 
their existing placement in the site's network to start a movement of 
long-time users bugging the admins for OpenID support. I don't think 
the first is really possible, though I am having some more thoughts 
on the second. It wouldn't have been very useful without attractive 
features on the RP's side, which we don't have much of yet - when 
there are a lot of things that can be done with OpenID (not just 
create an account elsewhere and use it to log in there, prefilling 
profile data, but intercommunication), it'll be easier for users to 
get excited.
