Description

The login procedure for remote auth when only one provider is listed seems overly complex:

The select list and "type" options could be hidden, IMHO.

Research direction

Start by locating the remote-auth login page and the rendering path used when only one provider is configured; the issue names no file or test. Verify the single-provider case, then confirm that the provider selector and “type” options are hidden while login still works normally.
