I would agree to only use the authname and not the protocol. we don't
display the protocol on the user account page and admins should choose a
name that makes sense to them. MNet is usually clearer than XML-RPC
because we really only use it for MNet. ANd yes, often we use LDAP, MNet
and then it's clear...

Title:
  displaying wrong title when first set up xml rpc auth type

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  New

Bug description:
  When one first adds a XMLRPC auth method to an institution that the
  'authority name' returned via javascript is used as the name for the
  authentication plugin.

  On saving of the institution edit form and then re-editing it the
  XMLRPC auth shows (correctly) as XML-RPC

  To test:

  1) Create an institution and add XML-RPC as an authentication plugin
  2) Fill out the Administer authorities form paying close attention to what you put in the 'Authority name' field
  3) Submit that form and the new authentication plugin option will appear on the institution edit fom with the 'Authority name' value as it's title.
  4) Save institution form and then edit it again - see 'XML-RPC' as title

  Actually I'm not sure which is the incorrect. If one has 2 XML-RPC
  options it might be better to display the authority name as two lines
  of XML-RPC is confusing to know which is which
