Should be great. Stills, there is the point of the Boinc Manager / Boinc
Client login process. If it were needed, there is a c++ library, for linux
and windows, see

In theory, an OpenID login for a user from other proyect should create a new
account and copy the registration data (including team, etc) via de OpenId
SimpleReg extension. This is done in the server, so no extra code is needed
in the client.

Probably no serious extra code is needed in the client. Just to tweak the
login box in the manager to allow for http://host/user and =user addresses
(and future @team addresses somewhere?). All the job could be done in the
php side using some BOINC variant of the "immediate" login option of OpenID.
