For cases where we are using OpenID for single signon for Canonical/Ubuntu sites, you'll probably continue to need a Launchpad account. A Launchpad account implied a little more than a plain OpenID: * that the user has a validated email address. * that the user's account hasn't been disabled for abusive behaviour. By relying solely on Launchpad as the OP, sites need not perform their own email address validation, etc. If we do add support for external OpenIDs, it will probably be in the form of a way to log in to your Launchpad account. I can't offer you any indication of when this will be implemented though.
