I have no problem with this either but I still think we should give the option of OpenNIC logins across our registrars as well.

What about having the registers use existing OpenID provides. I would think that most people here already have an OpenID account either through Google, Yahoo, other big names or through their own sites.

I'd maybe think about it, if it was fully secured and encrypted.

I don't think it would bother people too much to register at every
individual TLD registrar site, I'm sure even today people might have
seperate accounts at namecheap, godaddy, ventraip, network solutions,
etc depending on their needs from each registrar.

Beyond that, I am a little cautious though of a centralised login system
that brings with it a potential single point of failure.

My two cents.
