Both Google and Yahoo guarantee that the email address they return
during the OpenID authentication are emails that they have already
verified:

  http://stackoverflow.com/q/5639419

Therefore special case these OpenID providers and automatically
activate the new users account without requiring a separate email
verification step.

This therefore reduces the signup procedure by one step and makes
it easier for new users of these OpenID providers, which cover the
majority of users.
