It wouldn’t be compatible with SSO enabled, same as things like social logins. Thinking about this some more though, it might not be worth the hassle for the user. We’d have to require a confirmation mail, otherwise anyone can vote on your behalf willy-nilly. After first confirmation maybe we could keep that in a cookie and let the user spend their TL0 votes without confirming again, but that’s a lot of added complexity for such a simple feature.
