Hi Martin, Most of our uses don't know heads or tails about wikimedia commons and don't have a wiki commons account, so I think it is preferable not to introduce a wikimedia commons login interface. The user barrrier is in addition to the technical difficulties of implementation and maintenance. .
Ulrich Lantermann from Wikimedia is looking into whether or not European Water Project can load images via an API with multiple author attributions. All the image uploads should be uploaded CC0 under the name of the project, so the name attribution may not be such a big deal.
