[OpenID] The OpenID and OAuth Flow: Playing with UX

[Pat Cappelaere]

Agree.  But this was a factual statement.  Those 2 protocols were  
developed, on purpose, independently of one another.

Since a lot of users and developers are using both now, it would  
behoove us to find a smoother solution that can integrate the two  
protocols seamlessly.  This would give users a better user experience  
and make life easier on the developers as they can leverage existing  
code to support similar need.  No reason to homebrew something new.

Pat.
