I wonder a bit what the real alternatives are here? It seems to me
that OpenId is on the ropes. I would like to avoid having to get yet
another account somwhere, just to get acess to openid just to be able
to login into gerrit. Have other ways to login been considered?

openAuth is the standard these days for apis, and it looks like David Ostrovsky is on it to support both on gerrit https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/#/c/66313/2

        But yes - I loathe yet-another-account - the 'web' seems essentially
pathetic when it come to identity - beyond awful. I blame people like
the Mozilla foundation FWIW for not standardizing & un-screwing-up
something that appears trivial to users that have enjoyed the power of
ssh keys for access control for a decade or more. My hope would be that
something like:

They delivered persona based on BrowserID
