Bug Description

Since we're getting close to opening up login.ubuntu.com so that any site can authenticate against it, we need a means of being able to blacklist a site in case we find sites that are flooding us/overwhelming us with auth requests.

For the initial release, we're happy to turn the restriction on again if we see problems (we'll keep the sso_restrict_rp setting available for a while). This should be fairly low-traffic at first and we're not planning on announcing anything immediately. I've tagged this with proj-openit to include it in the list of tasks which must be complete before we can consider the general openid service completed.

We should consider reusing the rpconfig table for this, effectively merging whitelisting and blacklisting activities into one admin area. A few admin improvements to make it easier to see status at a glance and, potentially bulk-manage permissions may also be useful
