Unlikely. It'll be possible if/when OAuth lets OP's post something on
user's behalf, though - that way, users can stay at OP (like a spider
in their own web) and send original data through OP, letting it be
recorded "as delivered" instead of giving the RP an opportunity to
reject post (and refuse further requests for same), alter data, even
"lose" user's contribution.
Of course, that would kill privacy again. But maybe Google will offer
something like this, it seems in line with their other services :)
