[OpenID] Openidsamplestore

[Johannes Ernst]

... now I'm logged into two Google accounts at the same time, using the otherwise very cool Google multiple account feature.

Going back to openidsamplestore.com, I am trying to log in using the "other" (non-primary) account. But I seem not to be able to do that: the user component of the e-mail address is discarded, as we just figured out, and I can't choose the non-primary account in the OpenID confirmation dialog.

Work left to be done? ;-)
