Of course, you can vote. Just go to Severin's MDL-66729 Tracker post and vote. If you have never used Moodle's Tracker, you will need to create an account and do some other minor things, all pretty simple. Then you are done for life and have Tracker ready to go.
Your post made me think about this feature a little more. Let's see if this logic makes sense:
1) The Moodle system should have a setting, "Always use Advanced."
2) Then, this setting might be overruled at the course level, for some instructor reason.
3) Then, this setting could be overruled by an individual's setting.
Or, would you like these reversed?
(By the way, I am not the programmer, so this is why it is so easy for me to ask these questions.)
