I'm certain we can build a UI editor that can handle all those SIP options. I
think the two blocks of the xml file that should be moved to the database/ui
are the accounts (
https://github.com/Koha-Community/Koha/blob/edbc81199798aa084365a1845188aa24e6ad010b/etc/SIPconfig.xml#L55
) and the institutions (
https://github.com/Koha-Community/Koha/blob/edbc81199798aa084365a1845188aa24e6ad010b/etc/SIPconfig.xml#L105
).

One thing to consider is you can currently set institution codes to
non-branchcodes, but this makes things explode. We should probably start with a
something to codify that SIP institutions *must* be branchcodes now, then it
would be trivial to move that part to the database/UI.

We have another thought that perhaps would should get rid of
accounts/login/institution as the SIP patron's branchcode is functionally
equivalent. That's not necessary but could be a good followup.
