It looks like a combination of client side JavaScript and server side
configuration. So if it's a new JavaScript API, I don't see the harm
as it's up to the web site sysadmin to implement anything that may use
it. And in the end, it doesn't look all that different from a dozen
other APIs for authenticating credentials from OpenID, FaceBook,
Google, etc. I'd be curious to hear what you and the original poster
find objectionable in its design and/or implementation.
