Right. I misspoke myself a bit. I mean that if a person registers an
account with Insoshi with their email/password, they will later be
unable to switch to an OpenID log in.I have an account at Basecamp
( http://www.basecamphq.com. ) When I tried to log in with my OpenID I
got a friendly message that my account wasn't enabled for OpenID and
that I needed to enable it in my user settings. Inshoshi doesn't
( yet ) have this.

If the Insoshi account wasn't created with OpenID identity there is no
provision to switch from email/password to OpenID. So while I agree
with with you that OpenID is not _supposed_ to be orthogonal to normal
registrations, I think it currently _is_ as implemented in Insoshi.
