Is this possible to do with the current setup? I'd like an anonymous user to click login and have an account made without entering anything.

This feature is looks like it was put in as part of this issue: http://drupal.org/node/1075778 on 5/24/11, but then later taken out on 9/22/11 because of the way it was implemented by passing the linkedin token over unsecured GET. It was replaced with just a drupal_goto(user/register) call, and now the user has to fill in the drupal registration form from scratch after loggin in via LinkedIn.

I'd like to re-implement this in a way that doesn't involve sending the token over GET, and then even put in a admin setting to toggle the auto-account feature on/off. Is anyone already working on this?

If not, I'll reference the facebook and twitter modules, which both have this auto-drupal-account creation feature, and then upload a patch here.

That does sound like an awesome patch.. How long would it take?

Is there a way to at least auto populate fields like name (with LI profile data) after they sign in (such as a form that appears after they register), or would they still need to check the sync checkbox first? I'm trying to figure out how to import profile data rather than just display it on user profile with API call..

@tylerwalts: I am working on it... have you planned any way to do this?
