WorkArrocund: I use two institutions, one with public pages NOT allowed. That is the "normal" institution that is used by every user. Then I make some users also members of an other institution in which public pages are allowed. So these users can create public views. Problem: By allowing public pages in mahara also public profies are allowed. So althoug in the first institution the public pages are not allowed the user can make their profile page public.

I propose we be more granular in who can create public pages and public profiles on the institution level: - everyone - staff and admins only Ideally, an admin could overwrite the setting for individual "trusted" regular users as well so that they don't need to be given the staff role as that comes with more privileges. And now it's looking more and more like being able to create other roles and be able to manage permissions more like Moodle manages capabilities... Curently, roles are hard-coded in Mahara and thus that would need to change first.
