It seems Gmail is decomissioning username-password authentication.
Clients will have to use "Sign in with Google".  What happens to all
download-email programs?  I'm looking for one, in fact.  If I want to
pull my mail via POP or IMAP today, what would I have to use?

I'd like to read my mail with Gnus (using djb's Maildir storage).  I
can't stand Gmail any longer.  I'm done.

(*) Other questions

This ``Sign In with Google'' means the downloader would always have to
ask me for passwords?  I could never just pull gmail without being asked
for credentials?  (Very annoying.)
