Yeah, I know. I don't think OpenID is really at a place where anything like that could be implemented. Which I think is one of the problems with OpenID...it sounds good, but it wasn't planned for this kind of eventuality.
In that situation, I think users intuitively understand why they ought to keep an email address alive, because they have passwords mailed to it.
Even so--if I'd started an LJ using my undergrad college email address, which was closed when I graduated--the college could have theoretically reassigned that to another student. Less likely, but still...there are possibilities.
