Whatever can be shown to work. The point would be to show by
demonstration that it's (relatively) easy to provide and use identity
service and that Firefox browsers can use it with different backends /
services.

(I don't see any chance to get identity into Chrome by London - if we
can build a convincing story in London, the next IETF might be more
hopeful.)
