Title:
  Cannot Use existing auth plugins with new methods

Status in OpenStack Identity (Keystone):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Auth plugins hard code the "method" that is used to name them in the
  config file.  This prevents reuse, and forces a new Plugin for each
  mod_auth mechanism in Apache HTTPD.  Since there is already a handful
  of "external" plugins, we will have a cross-preoduct of auth plugins;
  one for each mechanism X mapping scheme.

  
  This was discussed at the Hackathon 

  From: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/keystone-juno-hackathon

  Remove method name from auth plugins (so the method name is owned by
  keystone.conf)

  One place where this shows up is that the "kerberos" method requires a
  new AuthPlugin for existing functionality, such as using the Default
  Domain.  The same is true for SAML, or OpenID connect.
