[OpenID] Password age and password reset

+1 but I think the user will need more than just arriving at the 
"Account Management" URL. Basically the RP is asking the user to "do 
something" at the OP to verify their account is still "valid". By 
default "do something" == "change password" though it could be something 
else as well. The RP will still have to rely on the OP to "do the right 
thing".

I just think from a UX perspective, there needs to be direction for the 
user on what to do.

Thanks,
George
