Bug description:
When Mahoodle is in existence, students cannot change their name and
introduction. It would be good to disallow editing of the name fields (or any
other field that is managed) by default so that they are not tempted to edit it
anyway and then run into problems or wonder why the new info is changed back to
the old one.
There is the possibility to lock fields and disallow editing. However, per
default, a Mahoodle allows editing, but it always overwrites the data with the
data it imports from Moodle the next time students log in. A number of users
have complained about that (e.g. on Twitter) because they didn't know that
Moodle's info would be inserted again as the fields in Mahara were editable.
I had this issue also on the 1.3 master.dev that I installed on my computer. If
I disallow the synchronization of data while setting up Mahoodle, SSO does not
work. Therefore, I think it would be good to disallow editing of the managed
fields all together for Mahoodle institutions.
