Comment 3 for bug 1169

We should authenticate https://launchpad.net/people/$person.name and probably provide the openid interface at https://launchpad.net/people/+openid

We add the <link rel="openid.server"...> to the person page, implement the openid server, and then I can put the relevant <link rel="openid.server"...> and <link rel="openid.delegate"...> into my homepage and delegate my identity to launchpad, which will make me very happy.

Of course, openid relies on the user being sensibly logged into the authenticating site, so we should seriously prioritise getting the longer-lived sessions working before we publicise any openid service.
