Using alternative auth sources (oauth2, webserver, kerberos) still requires the user to either:

• set and use a master password every time you 'login'
• enter the database connection passwords every time you 'login'

This effectively negates the benefit of outsourcing auth to other systems. It should be possible to either disable the master password or use a default one.
