Consumer (client) side: solution to obtain from Google email, first and last name, country and language

[GoogleCodeExporter]

For those who wants to fetch user data of users using Google openid, here is a 
patch.
(Attached you'll find a diff)

1) Add this function:
    protected function nsTranslate($field)
    {
    switch($field) {
        case "email": return("contact/email");
        case "country": return("contact/country/home");
        case "firstname": return("namePerson/first");
        case "lastname": return("namePerson/last");
        case "language": return("pref/language");
    }
    return($field);
    }
2) In function axParams(), change:
$this->aliases[$alias]='http://axschema.org/'.$field;
to:
$this->aliases[$alias]='http://axschema.org/'.$this->nsTranslate($field);

This should send *FOR GOOGLE* the right openid.ns.ax values in request.
To use it see second attached file

And why exactly would this be needed?

I've explained how to get data from Google (and other providers) at 
http://code.google.com/p/lightopenid/wiki/GettingMoreInformation

Is that somehow complicated, or otherwise not understandable?

Sorry, I didn'd find your wiki page: it's very clear :)
