While this patch will support the functionality you are talking about, I
believe a better move would be to actually design a proper authentication
stack. Some sort of $wgAuthn where you can register authentication layers
on a stack. The problem with AuthPlugin and ExternalUser is that they are
both too separate from the local authentication process, not to mention
both require users have passwords, which is something that is not
necessarily true for certain external authentication methods.
