Don't like this idea.

#1 Users that want to bypass kerberos have to know to logout first so 
they can login as a non-kerberos user.

#2 username/password screen would have to have knowledge that kerberos 
is turned on and that the user was logged in via kerberos.  I'm don't 
think this is possible with the current SPI.

This one might be easy to do with current SPI although not sure if 
kerberos plugin sets some session variables that need to be cleared.

Not sure how this is different than "Is this you?".

idp_hint is a much different animal, isn't it?  idp_hint is provided by 
the application.  skip_auth_mechanism would be something the user has to 
know about to type in the URL right?
