With all grids being independent of one another, or in the example
given by John, maybe use an "openid.osgrid.org/users/screenname
<http://openid.osgrid.org/users/screenname>"
http://openid.osgrid.org/users/Charles_Krinke
For those of you who don't know, this already exists. Click this:

or this:

Again, in this example Charles happens to have his identity at OSGrid,
but that's not a requirement of the exchange. It could just as easily
been an identity from another grid.
This way various grids could all run "openID" servers, and trust
agreements would need to be established between the various grids.
I'm not going to act on anything that suggests "trust agreements between
various grids." That's an AWG concept that I very much disagree with,
and want no part in. I have no problem with companies cutting corners on
security in order to be able to exchange agents on a lawyer-backed up
trust basis. But that's not what I'm doing here, and that's not what a
lot of people want OpenSim to be.
The goal is to be able to go from my home standalone to *any* sim out
there that I know nothing about, and still be sure that nothing bad will
happen to my belongings. Anything less than this is not acceptable as a
goal, for me.
