Great! Except here's a critical issue for you: I have just managed to
log on to MozTrap as you!!!

Here's the proof: http://i.imgur.com/eF0Cl.png .

In case you're wondering how I did this: I logged on to my weblog, set
my email in my profile to yfjiang at suse.com, and used its OpenID provider
to log in to the test website. Since I don't need to proove to my weblog
or the demo site that the email is indeed mine, I basically have full
control over MozTrap now. So, not a good thing. This needs some
rethinking. Most obvious option would be to use the OpenID URL (or
whatever it is that OpenID provides as the identifier) as id when
logging in using OpenID. This would also have a nice "side effect" that
the user could change their primary email, and still be able to log in
with the same user id and permissions.

Regards!
