[PROPOSAL] Handle "http://user at example.com" Style Identifiers

[Jonathan Daugherty]

# SIDE NOTE: For those who argue against email addresses in the OpenId
# login form on the grounds of confusion, these 2 email proposals
# should be no less "confusing" than trying to educate a user that the
# Identity URL they type in (e.g., http://aol.com) is not their
# identity.  Both will/would take some education.

Except that with this new feature, there would be twice as much
confusion.

And except that an openid works both as a normal URL and as an OpenID,
whereas an email-like-thing may work as an OpenID, but is not always
going to work as an email even though it looks like one.

So maybe 2.5 times as much confusion. :)
