Thinking about it, I wonder if it would actually be needed. If an institution has one Mahara site, then the site admin makes the decision. If a Mahara site is uses by multiple institutions then they will have different registration requirements and the site admin shouldn't decide for them how to allow new users in, esp. now that we can confirm registrations.
Also, if we turn of "registration allowed", users wouldn't be able to request access to another institution if they are already members of one. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

This is fine, but it doesn't give an easy way for the admin to simply turn off registration for every institution. This setting could be checked in order to render the 'register' link on the login form, and also to decide if we even give the institution forms the option. Some kind of interplay with the usersuniquebyusername setting would be desirable too (talk to Nigel about this). (Side note - in reality, whether you can register for a given institution doesn't quite make sense - it's more like whether the given 'internal' authinstance allows this, and as such it should really be a configuration setting of the internal auth plugin. Would be nice to work this in somehow...)
