I actually set one up 10 years ago or so, but it never really caught on (go figure).</p>

<p>There was a system similar to what you describe. It was called Mozilla Persona (previously BrowserID). Unfortunately, nobody significant picked it up so it was eventually killed.</p>

<p>I imagine that one would register for an account on some website, and then add the custom auth server host information to the account. From then on, one could log in using the custom auth server. (Or directly with the original creds in case the auth server is down!) Yeah, it's sort of reinventing kerberos.</p>
