However, just about every application I'm aware of does authn in userspace, not the kernel. (The one I'm not sure about is the kernel NFS server.) And we'll have to either drop in to userspace to spawn a browser, or do some seriously off-the-wall brainstorming about how to get the users credentials to the IdP.

Because that would be an awesome use of OpenID on applications. Although, I suppose it would be quite complex to implement. Another issue: Your blog's comments OpenID option is not working properly. When I tried to use my OpenID, your wordpress installation prompted me for an account on your database, which obviously, I don't have. So I had to resort to "anonymous" posting.
