Directly accessing the edit submission page after cut-off date

Hi all,

I was wondering what your opinion is on the following: If a student tries to access the 'Edit submission' page directly, by using it's URL (.../assign/view.php?id=...&action=editsubmission), they can do so as long as the assignment is open and hasn't passed the deadline or cut-off date. After the cut-off date, you can still try to access this page, but a generic error box is displayed:

"error/nopermission" with a link to a Moodle docs page to explain the error

Wouldn't it be more user friendly to display information stating: "You are trying to access a page that is no longer available to you. The deadline for this assignment was {$->deadline}, the cut-off date was {$->cutoffdate), today is {$->datetime}."

That sounds sensible-- maybe raise an enhancement issue in the Moodle Tracker?

That has become a new improvement on Tracker: https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-81421

Please like, follow, vote and/or comment to draw attention to it.

I was also wondering why we still don't have 'clean URLs'. Students in computer science are currently able to perform complex actions in Moodle, by just adding parameters to the URL and see if they work.
