For now, I'd ask "Can you live with a Launchpad account?":
https://login.launchpad.net/+new_account

But you do raise an interesting question -- one that we have discussed
in the past. Many people would like some form of single sign-on for
TDF/LO services, and OpenID seems like it could roughly fit the bill,
*especially* if we could configure an OpenID server so that it would
only authenticate to our services.

That would then allow users to either
- Re-use an existing (non-LibreOffice) OpenID account, or
- Create a project-wide OpenID account with us

Does anyone have experience running an OpenID server in this fashion?

Best,
