The packages are so awesome, it takes way longer to tell someone you set up an
instance for them, than to create the actual instance. So why not make
koha-create do even more of the work? 

I'm thinking of adding two more options: 

--emailto = Make koha-create send an email to the given address that contains
the URLs for OPAC and intranet, username and password. This could be someone
who is going to use the instance, or yourself, for future reference or
forwarding to whoever needs it. 

--emailtemplate = point to a custom template for the email, instead of the
default one. 

I'm thinking both of these could be set in the configfiles, as well as on the
command line. If you have two different configfiles you might want to have
different email templates for each of them. 

The one usecase I can think of for having the email in a configfile is if you
want to send the details of created instances to yourself, either just as a
reminder or for forwarding to whoever else needs the information. 

Sending the password in an email like this might be A Bad Thing, but the
passwords are supposed to be temporary anyway, right?
