I haven't found any traces of requests to add OpenID URLs for
authentication into account details for registered users, so I take the
privilege to be the first one to say that it will be handy.

If you are talking about tracker users, please report that to the meta
tracker (see Report Tracker Problem to the left):

http://psf.upfronthosting.co.za/roundup/meta

If you are talking about other kinds of registered users, please be more
explicit.

In any case, contributions are welcome; if this is referring to this bug
tracker, you should best contact the roundup mailing lists (and again be
prepared to provide patches).

What kind of registered users are available? I thought this site uses
single sign on system.

[loewis]

I don't understand your question. What is "this site" that you are
referring to, and why do you think it uses a single sign-on system?

[techtonik]

I mean that it is rather common practice for internet projects that
every member of community has one one login that works for all services
this community uses. This is called "single sign-on" or SSO
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_sign-on

So far I have only one login that works in bugtracker and I thought that
I can used it for other python.org services as well. My mistake, sorry.
In my previous post I've just asked about how many logins should I have
to use sites that share common design and navigation element you may see
on the left? What are other services except bugtracker that require
registration? I know there is at least wiki should allow login to edit
restricted pages.

My mistake is not a reason to close this bug report. OpenID just should
wait for SSO system to appear, if of course there will be something else
besides this bugtracker to login. Like code review system.

The reason to close this report is that you are not reporting a bug in
Python. Instead, you report an issue with the bug tracker itself. This
tracker is solely, only, exclusively, for bugs you find in the
implementation of Python often referred to as CPython.

Reporting it here is incorrect, and a reason to close the report. Please
report it in the place where problems with the bug tracker get reported
(you'll need yet another account over there as well. Feel free to use
the same username and password).
