Ooh! it is highly likely we are going to want to do this too.

In the quiz, it was intentional that a lot of useful information (like user idnumber) was made available to the language string to be avaialble, even if it was not used by the standard string that Moodle ships with. It would be good to do the same in the assignment.

There are a couple of added complexities in mod-assign, like group submissions and when user names cannot be shown because of blind marking, but it should still be possible to do something. I created MDL-84733.

It seems like you are building a activity which users Moodle questions, but which is not the Moodle quiz activity.

This is something you can do (see https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Using_the_question_engine_from_module) but don't do it by trying to subvert the standard quiz activity.

Build your own activity plugin. There are examples in the pluginds database. E.g. mod_studentquiz or mod_adaptivequiz.
