I really like Nabble features but there's one thing that always troubled me when I tried to use it in my projects: user registration.

I've tried to embed nabble forums in many social networking platform (e.g Ning, Spruz, Grou.ps) but I always had to fall back to the native forums to avoid asking users to register and login twice: once for the social network and once for the forums.

Is there any way I can programmatically manage users? Or even just establish a trust relationship between the embedder site and the emdedded Nabble forum so that the user identity can be communicated to the forum?

Supporting OpenID would be another great option. I think this is the only weak point of Nabble, it would be great to eliminate it!!
