While this patch will support the functionality you are talking about, I believe a better move would be to actually design a proper authentication stack. Some sort of $wgAuthn where you can register authentication layers on a stack. The problem with AuthPlugin and ExternalUser is that they are both too separate from the local authentication process, not to mention both require users have passwords, which is something that is not necessarily true for certain external authentication methods.
