[Bug 810302] Re: auth/saml enable user to link own account to remote user

 

I have pushed a series of commits to gerrit on master (auth_saml_enhancements) that represent the sum total of the changes required for the enhancements sponsored by the Ministry of NZ.
The main features of these changes are to allow users to have dual login mechanisms eg: internal and auth/saml, and then given this, when they login using auth/saml and no link is detected for a Mahara account, they are able to login manually and nominate an account to link to the external authorisation source.

Due to issues with the PHP shutdown callbacks that SimpleSAMLphp
registers, it is imperative that people using auth/saml use a separate
session storage engine for SimpleSAMLphp other than phpsession - checks
have been implemented to guard against this.
