In that case I think it's actively a bad idea. If people would still
have to create another password there's no point and it would
contribute to people not wanting to use common auth schemes like this.

They would not have to make another password. It would be possible to create a community account without a password (which would then only be reachable through an oauth login from a supported provider).

 

If you just have to make a username that's not as bad (though not ideal).

That would be the idea.
