Logging in to myfavoriteshow.org with an already registered e-mail address when logged in with another triggers a verification email, and hence fails to log me in.

Specifically, if I'm logged in to browserid.org as davidillsley@eyedee.me and enter david@illsley.org on http://myfavoriteshow.org/ I get a pop-up with a fixed e-mail address of david@illsley.org with a verify email button which sends an e-mail.

While I'm probably unusual in having separate, non-linked browserids, this is a flow which would be seen on a shared computer where e.g. different family members have different browserids and someone may be left logged in.
