I'm not logging in with Google to anything. Please classic any-email or no-email (like here on HN) registration only (and don't forget to allow changing usernames and emails). As long as it is necessary. Better no registration at all. I used to be among the early OpenID enthusiasts preferring to sign-in with Google everywhere, then I realized what the actual pros and cons are and concluded that's not worth it.
