Moodle 2.7 - Ability for Student to strike out or remove answers answers from questions

Hello, 

I have a request to add a feature to quizzes where a student can strike out or eliminate answers from the question to help them focus on the remaining answers.  The idea is they would remove answers they know are not correct.

Has anyone heard of this type of quiz feature and if it is possible. 

Thank you, 

Kate

In Moodle terms, the best way to do it would be to create a new question type plugin. It could share a lot of the functionality from the standard multiple-choice question type, and only add the extra bit. There are already several question types that add a bit to the standard one, like

They could be a model if you wanted to develop this.
