identifier that can be associated with the social user?
We definitely do in portal and most website would do. Most of the time
you can still connect to a website even if the social network is down.
Either during first connection with a social network they ask you to
provide a password, or one is created randomly and the day you need it
you use the "remember my password" feature of the website.
Each social networks gives you a userId unique for the network.
