Description
Grade letters currently work like this:
Site preferences are default for:
Course user preferences which affect : display for graders only
The problem is that the grade letters need to work in lots of reports/imports/exports and they need to work consistently, like this:
1. Site settings define overall letter boundaries which act as a default.
2. Course settings are set on plugin menu under Edit -> Grade Display (each can be site default or some local override). Also here is a course default for "Real / Percentage / Letters / Default"
3. Grade_item settings have another setting for "Real / Percentage / Letters / Default"
1 would require a new grade_letters table (set courseid to zero)
2 would use the same table (set courseid to courseid) for the boundaries, and a config_plugins entry for the grade display
3) would require a new field on grade_item called "display".
There needs to be changes in the grade classes too so that these are all resolved correctly.
Some ideas pasted from the HQ:
1) For courses, disabled by default and if the edit button is pressd, bump, defaults are copied to the course context and make editable.
2) Option to "reset to defaults", i.e. delete the contextid (course) related records.
3) Some capability should control who has access to edit contextid letters.
