Thanks David! I was wondering about doing the same thing! I had not thought of your idea of soft-switching the login name from username to email. Interesting idea. I was toying with making my own class + auth backenend so I could change the DB layout to drop email. But I could see that having issues in places that expect an email field....
I'm going to setup a spike of your idea this morning and see how it goes. One wrinkle I can see is the contrib.auth.forms has a regex filter on username that prevents the "@" symbol. Although I have to go see if the Admin system over-rides that anyway - I think it does. If anybody else has a clever idea, I'm listening!
