      There is already a discussion on-going on MDL-67959. But this tracker will resolve it only partial. It will solve the point 1 from this comment https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-67959?focusedCommentId=785234&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#comment-785234.

      The Moodle admin should can define what's the default setting of this "hidepicture" option for groups. It is annoying that the default is hardcoded and so the users can not decide what they want.
