Hmmm... at first I thought it sounded good. Now, reading between the lines, it sounds like they're dangerously close pulling another "embrace and extend" in that some OpenID providers will require Microsoft CardSpace (pulling in Vista, IE7, etc) and some consumers will refuse OpenID logins not using CardSpace or a similar technology. (So to login to some sites using the new OpenID, you'll need a modified browser and an OpenID provider that explicitly supports your browser).
