I submitted ages ago based on feedback I've gotten talking to users
who only occasionally edited. The idea is that that remembering a
username can be a barrier to casual editing (a few tries to remember a
username that you don't use much and you might just give up) -- and
being able to log in with an email address might help make things
smoother.
