Yes, we need that. Toys like TUSC should be replaced by scalable and correct stuff at middle term. But this is not currently one of the top priority, so we also need people to implement it, maintain it. This is not only a development issue (I wouldn't be surprise if the current OAuth providers extensions would be virtually mature) but a strong support and integration work afterwards.
You need to prepare something like an OAuth2 provider infrastructure to ask the user's Wikimedia home project to do authentication and submit your tool the appropriated result. Please note somewhere your proposal, and if possible, what and who you need to make it real.
