You are describing the tripartite identity pattern: http://habitatchronicles.com/2008/10/the-tripartite-identity...

For the most part. My example was more a bipartite pattern, because I was covering the authentication aspects, not the entire identity structure (which I believe Facebook and LinkedIn would implement as the article outlines). For a system where you don't need to track multiple social identities, and where you interact within that system through your identity on that system, that's probably enough.
