[security] Username / password etc. is out of scope for OpenID

[Recordon, David]

OpenID Authentication is about a user in a given browser session proving
to the RP that they control ("own") a given URI.

Oh no....Don't change the name...address the issues! RP's which make use
of OpenID are moving the authentication part to the IDP!  That's the
first and most important feature of OpenID. Or can you or anybody else
tell me, what OpenID is all about (there is also a Topic called
Fundamentals, perhaps this question belongs to the same category).
