How hard is it to implement email verification?
Because big players (other than StackExchange) never adopted OpenID where you could paste in an arbitrary URL for your identity provider.
Also, OpenID probably shot itself in the foot by using a URL instead of something shaped like an email address, which would have allowed a zero-effort upgrade for the user if an email provider also wanted to offer OpenID.
