I'm not sure what this does that something like google multiple logins doesn't do? At the moment I can log into google services with a couple of IDs and transfer between them with two clicks (except there's a slight clunkiness with gmail in the circumstances where one of the ids is not connected to a gmail profile).

It's sort of nice to have it in the browser so you don't have to work out where the button is on a given website so it will be good to have it up in the browser rather than down on the site.
