So, from the looks of it, you're redoing delegation to rely on the OP instead of the URI, and reducing the URI (formerly the primary identifier) to just another item of profile data (like name or photo), the "profile URL".

I'm not seeing how this "your Identity is primarily tied to your OP" approach does anything but reinforce walled gardens. It's nice "when people follow the rules": grand, but useless to protect against malicious OP's.

Postscript: reliance on SSL endpoints - considering how panicky the modern browsers get over self-signed certificates, isn't this discouraging (and effectively disqualifying) users from running their own OAuth/OpenID endpoints?
