Description

Use-Case

With external authentication services, such as CAS or SAML, the landing/login page shows the external service button and the login formular (user, password field). Even tho there is a "Login with CAS/SAML/xyz ..." button shown, some part of the users still feel like trying to use the username/password formular - it seems like some natural reaction to login formulars.

Solution
In order to misguide them less on the login page, there could be an optional setting to have the login formular collapsed by default in order to surpress the urge to use the username/password field ..
