Title:
  Updating user's Authentication Method

Status in Mahara:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  I updated a user's auth method from 'No Institution' to 'AUTldap (AUT
  University)'. When I searched for the user name under Manage Users ->
  User Search, the user's record under the column of Institution was
  still showing 'No Institution'.  Although, the auth method information
  does show correctly on the Account settings page. The mahara version
  is 1.2.4.

  Here is Richard's reply to this issue: 
  The problem is with the user account settings page, which basically assumes that the admin knows what they're doing, and allows you to do silly things like giving a user an auth method from an institution that she/he doesn't belong to.

  We should add code to stop auth methods from other institutions from
  showing in the auth method dropdown
