Currently EWS doesn't allow login to different users. There is only one account for admins. There are few features which could be benefit for authentication. Since we are anyways going to start using GitHub, we should implement 'Login with GitHub' on EWS. buildbot have some support for Github authentication. https://buildbot.buildbot.net also has 'Login with GitHub' button (on top-right). Reference: https://docs.buildbot.net/latest/developer/auth.html?highlight=authentication#third-party-authentication

Reference for authorization in buildbot: https://docs.buildbot.net/current/manual/configuration/www.html#authorization-rules
Note that this would allow most of our users to click the 'Retry' button on buildbot builds enabling them to retry failed (or any) build.
