Let's look at the complete SRV record:

_openid._tcp            IN      SRV     0 0 8080 openid.example.com.

We have a machine name, but what is the URL to the endpoint for logging in?
What is the user's OpenID URI?

I think Phillip is proposing a discovery chain - more opportunities for other parties to step in (at their layer) and take control, more points of failure if vulnerabilities are discovered in each protocol - and to be fair, DNS is *already* such a layer. OpenID relies on it.
