They are OAuth based ones, this is a password based one. Basically KAccounts offers several (plugin-based) auth mechanisms - oauth and password are two. With the oauth plugins (like for google, facebook and twitter and etc) the user authenticates on the website, which will return the oauth tokens which are then stored. Additionally to those tokens, we also store the entered username & password. So for Google & Facebook, we have the option to use the oauth tokens even for signing in with KTp (those are those SSO plugins you have in mind). But for all the other accounts, that do not support oauth, we still need the password based auth.
