The goal of the OpenID ext was not like that. The goal was to use OpenID 
for *existing* accounts only. That was a decision made at the time of 
development, which was a Hacontest-2006 :)

In my opinion, creation of accounts is not always safe, so it should not be 
a part of the stock openid ext. It should be separate. If somebody wants 
this, he should have one more small obstacle on his way before he makes a 
possible mistake.
