Comment:

 > but the OpenID plugin still seems to use latin1_swedish_ci,

 Depending on how the plugin creates the table, it might just pick up the
 standard table config. of the server, Its not generally a problem unless
 you're storing non-ascii characters (like acented characters, or double
 byte characters(such as chinese i think))

 You can change the collation in phpmyadmin as you see, but AFAIK its
 doesnt touch the data, only affects future data thats stored, So change it
 to urf8 if you wish for consistancy.

 I'm going to close this as invalid now since its not a !WordPress actual
 'bug', but you can reply without re-opening if need be.
