There are good reasons to plan for Wikimedia SUL only (consistency with the rest of Wikimedia projects), and there are good reasons to plan for other providers as well (the easiest path for most first-time contributors).
If there's a problem with SUL/centralauth and you can't log in either to the wikis or to phabricator then how do we report/track that issue?
We can still make noise on mailing lists and IRC (which sometimes is the case for reporting issues already).
Right now people complain that e.g. Bugzilla has a separate login so they don't report issues there. It's hard to judge what's the bigger problem because being concerned about our tools having the same auth mechanism has only come up since having the same auth mechanism is being considered, of course. :)
