Currently, you should either:
 - specify an attribute carrying the username (it doesn't need to be 
REMOTE_USER, however it must be unique for a user)
 - allow user-defined usernames, where the user can choose a username (which 
also must be unique) at the first login

We were considering a regexp mapping implementation for federated_id -> 
drupal_id mapping (ie. 'john at example.com' to 'john') but it seemed too difficult 
with a very little benefit. Please file a feature request if you are interested 
in such a feature.
