Support OpenId? #3

Open ida opened 7 years ago

That'll allow to mash it up like crazy, without having to register for each service.

Great idea. The accounts are all done through http://passportjs.org/ so this should be fairly easy to squeeze in.

Away for two weeks on a no internet holiday (at last) on Monday but will look at this when I get back unless you want to try yourself.

I'm back! As storing passwords, email addresses etc and handling forgotten password links is all a bit annoying I'm thinking jumping to move this from supporting OpenId to only supporting OpenID.

It'd make it a much better plug and play thing and would make the multi-channel decentralised stuff easier too as you wouldn't need to get a key from the other channel as it'd just authenticate through OpenId.

Going to try to doodle this. One issue is usability for people who don't get OpenId. Hopefully they have a help page I can link to from the login screen to explain the addresses and common things like Google etc. I'll look at how StackOverflow does it.
