Martin's proposal seems like a minor improvement to me - iterating  
thorough openid.ns.* or splitting the value of openid.extensions and  
then iterating through the result seems roughly equivalent.

Our implementation builds a map of extension aliases to namespaces  
when a message is received and after that, at any point during the  
life cycle of that message, extensions queries are  simple and quick  
map lookups.

So I'd rather not add the openid.extension field.
