This is how Google does it (note that I am in Firefox here, so it is actually reddit.com that does it):
Of course in an iframe for security reasons:
Solid (being decentralized) does not have that single point of access that Google has, which is why we want the browser.
@RubenVerborgh Would it make sense to make an extra challenge that is easier and that is tackled before this one?
@pheyvaer Agreed; could you take that up? Key is to understand whether or not we can indeed authenticate requests from an extension.
Pitch
My browser should have a series of buttons that I can press and depress to log in with different WebIDs. My browser remembers my credentials. By default, I'm logged in anonymously. When I press a button, the website gets a signal that I want to log in with this specific WebID (so the IDP selection step can be skipped).
