Bug Description
With Mahara 17.04, LTI is a possible way of linking user accounts from a LMS to Mahara.
Between Moodle and Mahara, with the LTI option "We create users" activated, a user is created when jumping for the first time from the LMS to Mahara.
At the moment only the email, first name, last name are pushed from Moodle into the user's Mahara profile.
I wish other information from the Moodle profile could be pushed such as the profile picture, address,… as long as the LTI protocole allows to do this.

It might be possible to send the picture through. There is an optional parameter for a user image URL in htdocs/ module/ lti/webservice/ functions/ module_ lti_launch. php
Technically, an LMS can send anything through if the LTI spec is extended to accommodate that on both sides.
