When I first read this, I was thinking from the standpoint of an institutional library that issues e-mail accounts via one of the Google Apps for My Domain programs (ie: Google Apps for Ed/Gov/Work). Otherwise, it seems like you're favoring one kind of e-mail account that, while popular, still only accounts for a small fraction of potential users. With an institutional Google Apps domain, it is possible now to set up the domain as a SAML identity provider, and set up Koha as a saml service provider (via Shibboleth <https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Shibboleth_Configuration>) that will trust the Google Apps domain. This still won't create accounts on the fly, but in this context you have an authoritative source of users you could periodically batch-preload into Koha. Incidentally, reading the original bug report for 10988, this configuration would also completely satisfy that use case. Oauth support is useful for it's own merits, but saml is probably the better choice in the context of allowing users within an institution to log in to both services via a single account. Oauth is better when you are allowing users from outside the institution.

Dear Bob,
Thanks for writing in!
Your response enlightened us more about google authentication.
It seems like that our use case is not possible with what Koha is capable of, at the moment.
Thank you so much again and have a nice day ahead!
