      This is a CSS thing, so please test in all supported browsers.

      1. Create a multiple choice question where the choices, and/or the per-choice feedback, is a mixture of one-line and multi-line text.

      2. Preview the question, and check that it is displayed correctly both before and after you have submitted your response.

      3. Rinse and repeat using a RTL language. (E.g. Farsi (fa). You will need to Google to find some suitable text to copy and paste into the question form.)

    Description

      I suggest indenting longish multi-line texts in the multichoice questions (involving radio buttons or checkboxes).
      In mod/quiz/styles.css, add:

      #page-mod-quiz-attempt input[type=radio],
      #page-mod-quiz-attempt input[type=checkbox]
      {float: left;}
      #page-mod-quiz-attempt .que.multichoice label 
      {display: block; margin-left: 1.5em;}

      See result in attached screenshot.
      Obviously this small hack needs to be tested against existing themes and browsers to make sure it does not break anything.
