It's just name/pass

It would be much more interesting to me if it also did Oauth2 login with Google/Facebook/Twitter/etc.

Yeah, name/pass sounds pretty simple, doesn't it? But doing it correctly, securely, with a service architecture? That gets interesting.

Totally agreed. The reason I designed AuthN around accounts first is because I believe that's the best way to launch an app. OAuth2 and OIC logins are powerful, but they're secondary to the classic login.
