OpenID/SAML *administrators login*

[tomlawesome]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Ability to log in to NPM control panel using OpenID.

To be clear, this is not a request to protect hosts proxied by nginx. I found lots of older issues about OIDC, but they all applied to protecting hosts using an authentication provider, not to logging in to NPM control panel itself via OpenID/SAML.

Describe the solution you'd like
To be able to login via an SSO/authentication service to access the admin/control panel. OpenID/SAML etc.

Describe alternatives you've considered
ALternative is just using the built-in login functionality, which is N/A

Additional context
I want to use an existing authentication backend to allow adminstrator login, so that administrator accounts can be managed via a single place/SSO.

Hi,

Just leaving a message to know if it's maybe able to be planned in a relatively close future of the project ?

It's a feature really anticipated when used in a multi administrators environments and audit of actions.

Anyway, thanks for all the work already done on this project !!
