I think Mathias' point was that for *new* developers you will raise the barrier. If someone wants to try Qt a mandatory registration is something that can scare them away. People starting to get fed up with such registrations everywhere, especially before they can realize if they need that tool or not. Existing users probably have an account anyway, for them it is just extra annoyance to remember the password (which is not the case for jira, gerrit, etc. as the browsers do that) and *might* cause problems for CI systems.
