Clearly--but could you elaborate more as to why it's helpful? (Thomas is currently in #ethereditor having this conversation)
OpenID was discussed in other threads; a discussion of pros and cons would be off-topic here.
I think it would be useful to have the openid extension enabled in labs prototypes if wikimedia ran as a provider and the openid extension was forced to use the wikimedia provider for login. Just adding in the OpenID extension without thought really just makes things more confusing and less usable.
