** Description changed:

  Currently, you can turn registration via the registration form on/off
  via the institution form.
  
  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...)
