Appreciated. I hope someone can do it so this issue can be tracked.

One more time: The issue is *not* the sign-up time. I don't know why
that canard keeps coming out unsolicited, but I wish it would stop.

The issue is the cumulative maintenance overhead of requiring yet
another site-specific identity instead of re-using an arbitrary existing
identity I already have. For details on why this is an issue (which is
rather off-topic for this forum), see any of the previous threads
discussing this.
