      In Multiple Choice question type, we have system text ("select one:" and "select one or more:").

      Many seem to prefer this lack of system text, preferring to write their instructions directly into the question content.

      So the request is for a setting that could disable the system text (but be 'on' by default to not affect previous questions).

      Help text: "With this setting enabled, system text will be supplied as part of the selection area (e.g. "Select one:" or "Select one or more:"). If disabled, question authors can instead include instructions in the question content, if required."
