Yes, of course you would, but right now a steward has
to:
*Notice that the request exists
*Check whether he has an account. If so: log in
*If not: create account.
*Confirm emailaddress

By then over 50 vandal renames can be done by WoW & Co. Unified login would
take at least away the "check whether he has account" and "create
account"
because he will have an account per definition of single user. The email
doesnt have to be confirmed anymore. He only needs to give a short link on
his userpage and grant himself (herself) the rights.
Why does the email have to be confirmed in the first place? Can't the
account be created without an email address? I can't imagine the time
savings is as significant as you're making it out to be, and there are
lots of ways to solve this problem which don't involve having the same
username on all wikis.
In fact, the username is irrelevant. A faster way to resolve the
problem would be:
*Notice that the request exists
*Create an account with a random username and no email address
*The finally he can give himself the needed rights.
