Adding a vote here too for New Quizzes to have the Plagarism Framework capability added so that submissions of text questions can be sent off to Turnitin and managed appopriately. At the moment we extract and compile and upload as zip responses. However, there is no API hook on the Turnitin side to automate this, so this last step is manual, and we are having difficulty supporting this for hundreds of quizzes at a time during central exam periods.
Turnitin have advised they will not do any development to streamline this unless instructure move to add the CPF.

This is a particular issue that has caused us some confusion with students - but taken more broadly, it is indicative of a broader issue of UX, and honouring an intentioned setting.
