Alternative login form, in case your members don't necessarily have nor need a password.

The login form just asks for the username (or email if [mailusername](https://github.com/terminal42/contao-mailusername) is installed). The user submits the form and receives an email (notifications are managed by [notification center](https://github.com/terminal42/contao-notification_center)). The user gets logged in when they hit the login in link within the email. The login link expires after 2 hours and immediately logs in the user.

Klarna is using this approach as well:
