"Basic login" using what?

E-mails as usernames?
Some user-defined pattern for custom usernames?
Via AD/LDAP? Via OAuth?
Passwords hashing via bcrypt, scrypt, pbkdf2?
What if there should be an IP address based restriction?
What if you need to tie it to some other application specific logic?

These are all questions related ONLY to a possible login() method, I'm not even going into how it would have to couple it to cookies, sessions or some other kind of token exchange.

It's only basic after you make those decision and CI as a framework should provide generic solutions while leaving the choice to you. With authentication, this is just not possible and as long as I'm involved with the project, such library will not be included.
