Yes, but administration may not be very happy with these answers. At any rate I won't forward any such complaints before 2.1

What happens is that students go to program directors who are usually quite reluctant to go through the trouble of enforcing policy and so if a student and/or his/her parents are persistent enough the program director tries to "cut a deal" which often simply compromises the standards. This is quite frequent with cases of plagiarism where students are given an "option" to do a rewrite (although in the case of plagiarism I'm inclined to think that the fault is usually with the instructors rather than with the students)

Fair enough. At present the key thing is certainly the amount of effort required to implement such a state and you are the best person to judge that.

But from the instructor's perspective and the administration's perspective preventing complaints is a major key since nowadays complaints arrive as a formal letter from the family's lawyer and handling such complaints may require quite a lot of effort too.

In the page html source. If HP does not query the server for feedback and validation of the answer all the information including the correct answers has to be downloaded to the user side. I think someone pointed that out in one of the forums not too long ago but I may be confusing HP with something else.

I think, and do correct me if I'm wrong, that Hot Potatoes have the answers at the back end of the page and so potentially accessible.

Have you considered the quiz adaptive mode? This mode adds a submit button to each question such that the student can submit that question only and get an immediate response. But at the end the student still has to submit the whole quiz for completing the attempt.
