It might be interesting to ask people from Mozilla (I know some of you lurk here!) about what their experience has been after they added federated GitHub login to their branch of Bugzilla.

(To be clear, it very much is significantly branched, and I don’t think us moving to that branch is practical or therefore likely. But it would show if federated login would solve the issue, which at least makes GitLab more viable.)
