authenticating to ipsilon using persona

[Fraser Tweedale]

Hi ipsilon@,

I was wondering something about Ipsilon...  I know Ipsilon can be an
identity provider for users in an IdM/LDAP on a number of federation
protocols including Persona.

Can Ipsilon be used by a Service Provider to authenticate *external*
users via Persona, OpenID, etc?  The advantage of this would be that
all of the authentication logic for the various protocols resides in
one place (Ipsilon) and multiple SPs can use Ipsilon.

I had a quick look at the code and saw the Persona IdP logic, but
nothing related to verifying Peronsa/BrowserID backed assertions.
But perhaps I overlooked something and Persona already does this.

Cheers,
Fraser
