Public bug reported:

When setting up Federation, if the protocol needs an new auth plugin,
the current mechanism is to add it to the methods list for the [auth]
section.  However, this has the effect of linking them all together,
when the real method should be to link the auth plugin with the
protocol.  Most of the Federation code is going to require the mapped
plugin, but that should not be included in the stack that is then used
for password or token based authentication.
