No.  I am going after the more conventional single sign on use case 
where many consumers depend on only one centralized identity provider, 
and I'd like to use a restricted form of OpenID to accomplish it.  It 
turns out that Launchpad's internal authentication system is pretty much 
exactly what I was planning to do, so Gary's info pointed me in the 
right direction.  Launchpad also happens to provide public OpenID 
services, but I don't need to do that.
