Comment 5 for bug 1169

Nope, but consider me, a standard "luser" of the OpenID service provided by Launchpad.

This morning, I go to view my livejournal friends list and it sends me to launchpad to log in in order to authenticate. I log in and view my friends list, all is well.

Now, at four in the afternoon, I go to look again. Livejournal decides it wants to re-check my authentication and bounces me back to launchpad. If launchpad has remembered my login, all is well, otherwise I have to log back in again, which is annoying.

Now consider I authenticate in the morning for livejournal, then a while later I attempt to use my openid on another site. By this time launchpad has forgotten because our sessions are too shoddy right now, and I have to authenticate to launchpad again.

All in all, OpenID is meant to make it easier to use the web, not more annoying. As launchpad's session handling stands right now, it'd annoy me more than it'd make me happy.
