I'm currently working on a Facebook Connect plugin.  It keeps the  
comments local to Habari, and just uses the identity login from  
Facebook for the visitors, and gives you a share via FB link.  I've  
just been a little slammed with work here lately, so I've fell behind  
a little bit on development.

Is that something more along the lines that you are looking for?
