(Identity team member here.) Yes, that's right. tincan is against running an ephemeral instance of Persona that doesn't do the account bridging, and doesn't share a database with the real persona.org. We do plan to integrate this with Persona. Also, while I think this is an awesome use case for Persona, and we do intend to land it in Firefox [1], it's worth noting that the proposed webrtc idp proxy architecture [2] is designed to work with any identity provider, not just Persona, and could be incorporated into any browser.
