Option to mute assignments by default

  Idea will be open for vote May 5 - August 5 Learn more about voting...

 

Institutions or instructors who wish to always mute an assignment before providing feedback must 1) remember to do so, and 2) perform multiple clicks to mute each assignment.

 

An option to default every newly created assignment to a muted state would make them happy.

At previously mentioned, muting of assignments by default is not something we would actively pursue as new functionality; however, we can make the process easier if we added the option as a tic box in the assignment creation process.  Would an enhancement like this be sufficient to meet most of your needs?
