If one were to add the ability to create institution on user authorise
they would need to take note of:

1) It should be against the site's 'mahara' (called "No institution") 
institution
2) It should be an option that one can choose when setting up the auth instance
3) Could add the check in request_user_authorise() just after defining 
$institutionname
 where if $instituionname doesn't exist and we allow create of institution we 
can create one now

Title:
  I need to automatically create institutions based on attributes in
  SAML

Status in Mahara:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have a site with hundreds of institutions. I have to duplicate
  institutions from the SAML provider to Mahara. To do this currently
  involves manually adding each new institution to Mahara. Instead, I'd
  like to be able to configure the No Institution SAML authentication to
  automatically create institutions and assign users to them based on
  SAML attributes.
