context as to a given site's audience.
It doesn't appear to me that omniauth offers an alternate local account
authentication method, which means that if a user doesn't use any of
your offered providers (or prefers not to), s/he's out of luck.
Not really. The user can still click on a provider icon and signup right there. It is better to offload authentication to the main stream sites. I don't see a reason for providing a fifth wheel :). Let's face it. No one wants to fill out another registration form and compromise their password or worst remember yet another password.
Something to consider.
