I'm trying to make sense of Google's authentication framework and
determine if it introduces any usability risks.

Here's what I found in an online Google resource and if I'm reading it
right, I think we've got a bit of a usability problem:

>From http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/AuthSub.html
****

[1]  When the web application needs to access a user's Google service,
it makes an AuthSub call to Google's Authentication Proxy service.

[2]The Authentication service responds by serving up an Access Request
page. This Google-managed page prompts the user to grant/deny access
to their Google service. The user may first be asked to log into their
account.

***

Does AuthSub really inject some kind of security warning page into the
user experience? If so, has anyone asked what everyday users think of
this?


Thx.
