Ah ok. Didn't realise this context.

Sounds like one can associate multiple 'open-id' accounts with a
single bitbucket account. And Sean must be suggesting - he would add
all 'open-id's for each of us to be able to login to 'petsc' account.

I suspect Sean created 'petsc' account with his openid account.  And
hence it doesn't have a passwd to share..
