[Gradebook] Flexible Due Dates + Late Policy Delay

[SHAWNELIASON]

Hi, 

I like that Canvas will automatically deduct lateness penalties but I frequently use flexible due dates. It would be very useful for me to have an assignment due on a certain date but to allow a couple of days leeway before it deducts a penalty. The feature could easily just be "start deducting lateness penalties after ____ days"

Yes, great idea! I would like to be able to give students some built in flexibility.
