I would say that what's inside the Yadis document is outside the scope 
of OpenID Auth. It's simply a hook to enable extensions that must be 
instrumented at the RP side.

In other words, OpenID auth just needs to specify how to find an RP's 
Yadis document. The rest is for other people to figure out. That is the 
point of Yadis, after all.

(and then this IdP-initiated login thing could be an extension built 
upon this ability, and thus not hold up Auth 2.0.)
