Well, by "hiding" I mean that there are quite a few settings that show
up on the Institution config page for other institutions, but which are
not shown for "No Institution".

It sounds like you are saying, that a setting should be hidden from this
list, only if the purpose of that setting is to allow the Institution to
override one of the site default settings.

In that case we should probably expose the skins checkbox for the "No
Institution" institution. Or alternately we could just set it to default
to being the same as $cfg->skins. But potentially in a multitenanted
site an admin might want the No Institution users to not have skins, so
it's probably useful to expose the checkbox.

Title:
  Users who are in "No Institution" can't use skins

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Even if you activate skins in config.php, users who belong to "No
  Institution" can't use skins. This is because the institution-level
  skins config is hidden from the "No Institution" config screen (since
  it shows only a subset of the available configuration options), and so
  it defaults to false.
