[OpenStack-Infra] On being an OpenID consumer instead of an OpenID producer.

| It's actually opposite of how you describe. Writing a good OpenID consumer 
is hard due to user interface design issues,
| especially since most people (even most technical people) have no idea how 
to properly use OpenID. Education efforts
| have been ongoing for 8 years, so that won't really help either.

Except that in our case, all our apps are *already* OpenID consumers.  There 
is no additional education or development needed here.

Standing up another provider is more work.  Making our existing apps be 
provider agnostic is less.
