I'm really suprised the credit-card companies haven't gotten involved.
They have the insfrastructure for managing large numbers of

authenticate with an online vendor, chances are that as long as I have
that card out, I'll use it to make the purchase as well.


"Sign in now with your credit card! You can trust us!"

I don't see how I'd ever trust a system that required my credit card for
authentication.
