OpenSocial and OpenID aren't really related (except that they are both part of the open stack).
Facebook can easily continue to do whatever they want with their API and still do OpenID. It would be nice, however, if they did a hybrid OpenID/OAuth flow and then have an OpenSocial API that you could get access to with the oauth token. The user experience would be pretty much the same.
