Login to paid account with OpenID

[jqp]

Title:
Login to paid account with OpenID

Area:
Login

Summary:
I would like to use an OpenID URL and password to log in to my Dreamwidth paid account.

Description:
I have a paid Dreamwidth account. I also have an OpenID URL. I would like to use my OpenID URL and password to log in to my paid Dreamwidth account.

This would allow me to use my OpenID for its (as I understand it) intended purpose: de-cluttering my mind of username/password combinations.

Yes, I think the planned implementation was for the DW account to "own" the openIDs, rather than the other way around. While a part of me thinks yes, it makes sense to be able to get into the DW account via the openID, I can also definitely see the security flaws in that. Hmmm.
