Persona is distributed. Today.

Can you elaborate on that? OpenID was designed to be browser-independent. Persona is essentially a distributed openID with some extra browser integration. Sure Mozilla doesn't support openID, but I'm unsure what you would want them to do...

Without browser support, you have to type your ID into every site. (I'm ignoring Nascar login because that's not distributed.) With browser support you just click to login and maybe click again to confirm.

Here is a Firefox add-ons to add the missing "browser support":

(I have not actually tested this add-on myself.)
