Ah, I forgot about this. Maybe this should be reconsidered, but either way, this was my misunderstanding.

I used Bugzilla as an example, but I think it goes beyond Bugzilla. It also affects OAuth/OpenID authentication to lists.fedoraproject.org, pagure.io, src.fedoraproject.org, etc. I don't want to share my forwarding address with any of these services, because it is subject to change. But, the way it seems to use my forwarding address as my account identifier, rather than my FAS username or @fedoraproject.org email, seems to force me to share it with them. > > In the mean time we can override this for bugzilla. > File a infrastructure ticket for it. I have previously done that, and my Bugzilla account is my @fedoraproject.org alias. All that seems to be working if I log in with my Bugzilla username and password. Permissions and auto-watch and notifications all seem to work. I also can see the new text box in Fedora Accounts settings that shows it correctly. However, that doesn't allow me to log in via FAS, because Bugzilla still wants me to register a new account using my forwarding email address. > > > > Every FAS account has a corresponding @fedoraproject.org email alias. > > nope, they do not. > I stand corrected. However, I still think that there *should* be a unique identifier that isn't as volatile as a forwarding email address, for the purposes of authenticating to FAS using OAuth, and it seems like it makes the most sense to have it based on the FAS user name, and not some field that the user can change in their FAS account. > > Also, why doesn't the FAS OAuth login redirect page show the password > > and 2FA fields separately, like on the Fedora Accounts > > (accounts.fedoraproject.org) page?
