John,

In direct verification messages you should be sending  
openid.mode=openid.check_authentication.

What spec are you looking at? The latest version (draft 11) is here:
http://openid.net/specs/openid-authentication-2_0-11.html

.. and it says in Section 11.4.2.1 Request Parameters (under 11.4.2.   
Verifying Directly with the OpenID Provider):

> - openid.mode
> 	Value: "check_authentication"
> - Exact copies of all fields from the authentication response,  
> except for "openid.mode".


Hope this answers your question.
Johnny
