Okay, "Rich User Agent" is gone.
That leaves a total of 18 terms. Of those, 6 are defined by other specs:
Canonical ID
Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange
IdP
RP
User Agent
XRDS Document
That leaves only 12 OpenID-specific terms on
http://openid.net/wiki/index.php/Terminology, and only 4 open issues. More
on those in other threads.

I also dislike the new term "Rich User Agent."
(/me goes and looks up where that term is used in the spec)
In the spec there is exactly one use (new to draft 11):
Browser extensions or other Rich User Agents that support OpenID
Authentication may
not detect a Relying Party's support if the value is not this value.
How about:
Browser extensions or other software that support OpenID Authentication
may
not detect a Relying Party's support if the value is not this value.
and then we don't have to define anything new.
