And I would add that, from a user point of view, I would be very 
reluctant to help at any system that would let me be identified in any 
way other than me voluntarily and knowingly providing my id by means of 
some obvious login page or certificate, and then only to some party I 
trust not to disseminate that information outside of my control.
And enough recent cases have shown that such trustable parties are not 
very thick on the ground.
So independently of the technical issues, you are up against some 
guaranteed and well-founded resistance.
