It could be quite useful to allow the email field to be a fallback for the username during Drupal login (i.e. email login). There are of course contrib tools to do this with a local Drupal account (e.g. email registration) but they will not be aware of the current state of the account data in Crowd. This is why supporting this concept would requite some specific functionality within this module directly.

Here's a patch. It adds a config option that, when enabled, will lookup users that have the email address entered in the login username field, and test the credentials against their account as a fallback.
