I would like to know more about this, but my instinct is always to say "NO"
for as long as possible when any new feature will a) introduce complexity
and b) stifle or impair potential adoption.
That we've come as far as we have is a feat; maintaining that momentum is
critical — and that means making good on the promise of what OpenID offers
*today* — and only extending it with real world examples where people are
implementing kludges (en masse) to serve a common need.
