[OpenID] Delegation leading to new accounts on websites

[Tom Edwards]

My personal OpenID server broke a while back, and I've decided this 
evening to start delegating in order continue using my personal URL 
(<http://steamreview.org>). This is the code now in my page header:
> <link rel="openid.delegate openid2.local_id" 
> href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/varsity/" />
> <link rel="openid.server openid2.provider" 
> href="https://open.login.yahooapis.com/openid/op/auth" />
But when I login to the sites I used my openid on before it broke (I've 
tried Get Satisfaction and Userstyles.org so far), they don't recognise 
me as an pre-existing user. They think I'm 
www.flickr.com/photos/varsity/, whereas I actually still want to be 
steamreview.org.

Is this intended behaviour? I thought the point of delegation was to 
allow people to switch providers without changing consumer-facing identity.
