[OpenID] a developers first encounter with account chooser (openid connect?)

[Peter Williams]

In a word: frustrating. http://wp.me/p1fcz8-2YW. It was frustrating on multiple levels, some of them political, some about clearly over zealous monitoring of RP matters, and some due to and obvious lack of willingness to listen to mature RP communities and their requirements for adoption. But, whats new.
 
Obviously the code is fixable, but one worries about the very "idea" - there seems a desperation in the desire to remove local IDPs - including those granting access to privileged administrator configuring (broken) federated logon!
 
To be fair, the default Microsoft ASP.NET web app project built by the released version of visual studio 20102 doesn't work, either - when taking up the federated (OAUTH/openid) login option and its display of a set of IDPs, configured locally. It doesn't even compile, link and load! Thus, I have not even so far as work with its attempt to showcase Openid Connect, or see if things interwork yet with Google's implementation, etc.

I would not speak for Account Chooser. I will let somebody like Eric to do so. 

As far as Connect is concerned, there is a very strong desire to allow local IdPs including the IdPs that lives on user devices.
