The UK Federation is available to most, if not all, the UK academic research community and many other publicly funded organisations. And if you aren't a member of such an organisation, then anyone can sign up with ProtectNetwork or TypeKey and get a login that way. ProtectNetwork gives you an OpenID as well. I think that supporting multiple different authentication mechanisms is going to be confusing for users (never mind those that have to support the services), so we'd really like to support just the one authentication mechanism. The ID providers I mention above does make the UK Federation (and hence a Copac login) available to all.
