Quoting Peter Wolanin <pwolanin@gmail.com>:
I think this already works in D5 (and I assume D6). I just temporarily changed my g.d.o username to pwolanin@test.org and it works fine.
Thanks for being my tester :/ I should have tried it myself. So it is feasible that if g.d.o deactivated the drupal module that the registered users would still authenticate and no extra work is required.

Authenticate yes. But they will need to remember their password and if they have not set an email address on their account then they will be unable to access it. Also, as some people screw up, there is some account duplication on drupal.org itself i.e. jdoe and jdoe@drupal.org. Email addresses have to be unique so we will probably encounter some issues there as well so announcements should contain a notice for people to check and input email addresses. Steven Peck
