Re-purposing this bug to deal with the example in the original report.

'allowother' set to true doesn't have the correct 'for' value set in the
label.

Bug description:
  Mahara: master

  Input text fields should have a label and/or use the 'aria-labelled
  by' property to bind multiple inputs to a label.

  Please refer to: http://webaim.org/techniques/forms/controls#input

  An example where it is needed is in the screen
  (artefact/internal/socialprofile.php):

  * Social media > New social media account

  The input box (id=editprofileform_profiletype_other) next to "Other"
  is not linked to a label. Screen readers refer to it as "edit".
