I've looked into it - should be trivial, no problem.

This is slightly more work, as currently one main name is used for 
search, and this will require to change the internal API a bit to also 
provide authN option aliases from authenticator to the login screen, but 
doesn't seem very hard.

I'll open tickets for both, seems that together with few other requests 
the next update will be mostly focusing on SAML functionality.

Best,
