Just a note, although OpenID should work good for a user with a
browser, it will not currently work good for any REST clients, as it
is based on cookies and javascript.

In a (unfortunately not Restlet-based) website we've created we let
the user login with OpenID and have the possibility to create an
additional local username and password linked to their account, for
use with HTTP Basic auth with any REST-clients (and also if the OpenID
server is down...).
