      The implementation of MDL-61650 "Moodle Assignment online text allows nbs as submission" has caused a regression for teachers who use quick grading. 

      We have our students submit screenshots of activities they have completed into the assignment module's online text box submission. Students now get an error when submitting that says there is nothing to submit (due to the implementation of MDL-61650). I understand the importance of that MDL - to prevent 'blank' submissions from being submitted. 

      The reason we used the online text for this type of submission is so teachers can utilize the quick grading (it displays all the submission images on one screen instead of requiring teachers to download each file or to grade one visual at a time using the Document Converter Single Student Grading). In the meantime, we're asking our students to type in a letter before or after their inserted screenshot.
