There has been talk of changing this.  I know it was being worked on (by
puiterwijk) but I don't know the status.  Allowing multiple auth
providers brings up a few issues (you have to namespace users) but I
think there was a plan for dealing with that.

Anyway, if there's something that you need and pagure doesn't offer, I
would suggest you make the pagure developers aware of that.

Github supports oauth2; that should be enough, I think.
