OK.  Tentatively I replaced your old series with these 8 patches
including the last one, as I tend to agree with the value the
earlier clean-up in the series gives us in the longer term.  As you
and Felipe discussed, we may want to replace the last one with a
simpler "don't bother asking" patch, but I think that is more or
less an orthogonal issue.

I'm not sure how orthogonal it is. The latter half of my series is about
exposing the user_ident_sufficiently_given() flag. If we go with
Felipe's patch, then that exposed information has no users, and it may
not be worth it (OTOH, it's possible that some third-party script may
want it).

Oh, no, you are correct.  I shouldn't have said "the last one", but
instead "the later ones".  The first two we should definitely keep,
at least, but the other three are not so clear.
