Why am I giving you the source code to a password manager? Because I'm trying to say if you want a feature in open source software, you have to fork it and implement the feature yourself.

Before reading the article I was wondering what do they mean exactly with PW managers supporting ln-auth.
Then I read this in the article:
"Why not" is a terrible justification.
Why on earth would we need a LN wallet without any funds, incorporated in the PW manager just for logins?
It does not actually solve any issue.
It's like the author tihinks ln-auth tech is cool but does not really understand it.
Ln-auth is just automated key signing. You can solve the issue with logins by just using that, no need for a defunded LN wallet inside a PW manager.
The future I see for online logins is one where ln-auth is one possible source of key signing type authentication. Others would be HW wallets, yubikeys and PW managers themselves using their bultin cryptography.

Agree, abstract the solution to key signing and you allow for open integration for many providers (LNAuth included) and a clear and easy standard moving forward.

SN is a peak to 5-7 years into the future. Using a LN wallet as your identity/login will ultimately become the norm across a big chunk of the web, especially communities centered around discussion or content (which is a big chunk of the web).
Hardware devices (not your phone) will be normal for most other things. Maybe they will be the same thing, but the UX will be worked out.
Where we are going... we won't need a password manager. Hard money (i.e. energy) will authenticate you.

🤔🤔 Do you need a bitcoin backend to perform LNURL-auth? This would be a good project for their upcoming hackathon.
