Re: Better integration with OpenID

You're right, so I went and looked up some of the improvements specifically made in Bugzilla:

* Give OpenID users access to their recent comments page
* Tried to go around the service and make sure OpenID users had menus and settings applicable to their account. So, the menus don't show "post" for them, etc, etc.
* Went around taking out ext_XXX notation and replacing it with user.service.com
* Adding an OpenID login to the nav strip
* Allow people to use the OpenID URL to manage access in their circle
* Improved the main OpenID login page by taking away the yellow beta warning box and adding a notice about validating your account to get notifications
* Giving logged out users and OpenID users a post comment link at the bottom of the page
* OpenID validation email customized for OpenID accounts
* Inform OpenID accounts that they can't use HTML in their profile

We plan to also:

* Allow OpenID users to join communities, although not post, so they can see locked posts

To be honest, a lot of it is just little and detail oriented.
