I concur with this idea.
Tangentially, it would also make refactoring authentication easier.
Right now, certain combinations of authentication work in a particular order, and there is no way to change that.
Plugins would let us access them in a particular order, and even configure them IN the staff client, not just
koha-conf.xml which gets filled pretty quickly with authentication cruft (ldap, shibboleth, cas, etc.)
