            Bug ID: 69283
           Summary: dualism between user and sysop needs to be overtaken
           Product: Pywikibot
           Version: core (2.0)
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General

Some wikis, especially non-WMF ones, might have complementary user groups
without clear distinction between users and administrators. So, one single user
could have an account with "delete" permission, another with "editinterface"
rights, etc., and use each of them for a different purpose.
Many bot-ops have multiple bot accounts for different tasks, too. Instead,
Pywikibot only allows to configure one username per site.

The framework should also support CentralAuth (et similia) to automatically
detect on which wikis a given account has bot/sysop/etc. rights.
