Description
Not sure how feasible (nor how desirable) this would be, but just tossing it out there: https://gpgauth.org/projects/gpgauth/
The workflow would be:
1. User claims keybase username
2. Keypair is generated for user (user is prompted for password as part of key generation)
3. Server associates public key with keybase username
4. User now only has to remember one password (private key password) and still has secure login capabilities
