            Bug ID: 70392
           Summary: Allow to automatically unify on login absent clashes
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Unprioritized

If $wgCentralAuthAutoMigrate is set to true, when a user logs in and has no
global account, in case all local accouns with same username match the email
and/or password, create a global account and merge everything.

It was noted on
https://meta.wikimedia.org/?oldid=9740729#RenameUser_announcement that this
case is fairly frequent and not handled by $wgCentralAuthAutoMigrate yet. Bug
69291 should have taken care of all the unmerged accounts sharing email.

Example: https://tools.wmflabs.org/meta/stalktoy/Nemo+nonies , two local
accounts with same password and no email set; I logged in for both and no
global account was created.
