OpenSim is open source, so anyone can experiment with anything at any time. CB and Rex (and me) have been in the front line of experimentation with logins and identity.
What I meant was that the modularization that has been done for most services so far, except the user services (sigh), makes these experimentations a lot easier. Specifically for logins, identity, trust, etc the current entanglement related to users and everything else is a royal PITA. But the refactoring is coming, and it will give everyone a decent sandbox to try out whatever ideas they may have without having to hit their heads on mountains of puzzling dependencies.
