Allow users to sign up using an existing OpenID.
It'd be really handy, since chi.mp is an OpenID RP, to allow users to sign up with their pre-existing OpenID credentials.
I’m still kicking the tyres.

Inappropriate?Yeah! Especially if there was some way of using OpenID to merge ID information from chi.mp back to the existing provider, e.g. adding chi.mp as one of your websites. Does that make sense with OpenID?
I’m happy

Inappropriate?Umm... I think you might be able to do that kind of thing with OpenID 2.0 Attribute Exchange, but I'm not entirely sure.
It's possible that part of the point of OpenID is that you only define profile attributes in one location (i.e. your OpenID provider) and that filters down to all the RPs.
Personally, I'm planning on using chi.mp as my OpenID provider (delegating my existing OpenID, that is).
I’m happy

I don't know a whole lot about the fine points of OID, so I just wondered. I should go look that stuff up...
At present, by the way, I just use my Wordpress.com blog for OpenID, but I'm liking chi.mp a lot better for this.
