I guess you'd probably would want to make sure that the government cannot easily find out who the citizins are in such a case. OpenID could be used here, with as main requirement that pseudonyms are support by the IdP/OP. The remainder of the OpenID government profile, and the need for a trust provider, and less obvious to me for a C2C use case.

Regarding the use of openid for governement, the question is, however, if the only application is G2C, or also interaction between citizens facilitated by government. Think about, e.g., citizen dicussion fora. For this sort of thing lower levels of trust (combined with more privacy) might be interesting as well as solving issues with the scale and adoption of cross-European identity. Interesting!
