Personally I don't think this is a good thing to have.  A single-sign-on is 
great if it is all-inclusive (forums, bugs, etc) and in the case of OpenID we 
would not be able to accomplish that across the gammit of web apps we have. 
 
On top of that, I don't think anybody on the infra team has experience with 
OpenID enough to trust or vouch for it.  For what it's worth, not even 
Mozilla's bugzilla supports it (where bugs for bugzilla go to). 
 
Cheers

Going to have to agree with Corey on this one. I certainly dont have enough
knowledge in OpenID to support this, nor the time to go through and edit the
code to make sure its secure enough to post on our servers. Apologies
