I wonder if you can't already achieve something like this with the OOTB
authenticator implementations, but just correctly configure them? For
example in the "First Broker Login" flow used for your identity
provider, you can just directly use the default browser-based
authenticator ( UsernamePasswordForm ) instead of the
IdpUsernamePasswordForm. That way, the username+password form will be
always shown for "First Broker Login" and once user authenticates, his
account will be linked with IdP account.
