Users are least confused when the login UI presents them with their expected auth type by default.
Describe the solution you'd like
Ability to select default auth type for the UI
Describe alternatives you've considered
The addition of listing_visibility to /sys/internal/ui/mounts was a great feature and went part of the way. But even if you enable listing_visibilityfor your desired default auth, the UI still starts by default on "Other" which confuses users. To handle situations where people may have multiple auth types set to visible, the most flexible solution is probably to have a default auth type selectable for the UI.
Defaulting to "Other" was a bug that we fixed for 0.11.1 here: https://github.com/hashicorp/vault/pull/5281 . That said, we do have this on our radar so we'll keep this open to track when it lands - thanks!
I've also got this issue, there is currently no context to a user who doesn't know the ins and outs of Vault for what Auth Method they might want to use, especially if there are multiple of the same type enabled.
