1. `auto_create_users` default value is removed. We want to avoid situations when admins integrate OIDC/SAML providers and don't expect anyone that has access to it to automatically gain access to VPN, which is especially critical for providers like Google Workspace, where all employees typically have access. 2. OpenID library was completely rewritten and a new version is integrated. It will allow async tests and better scales for the cloud version of the panel. 3. `Mox` was removed, we don't test modules by overriding them to prevent breaking changes that tests can't capture. 4. Deps are reordered and unused ones are removed. 5. Browser/e2e tests are added to ensure we won't break UI features in the future, allowing for front-end refactoring. 6. Users context was overhauled for better code clarity.
