It would be great to have a setting on the quiz config page which enabled an admin to disable starting and ending times and/or be able to set always available as default.

refer to patch in issue #177703.

Have fully implemented this feature. Sitewide you can disable availability options if wanted, or you can force people to pick times to open and close quizzes.

Title: Always available as default » Provide option to set 'always available' as default

After playing with those settings, I think it might be even cooler to presume that a user wanted their questions 'always available', but then expose a Start and End time settings if, and only if, they've checked the 'Limit the duration of this quiz question' box. This begs the question as to when we should begin introducing little tidbits of jQuery functionality into the UI to help out the site admins. They're gonna need it for 2.0, I can see that now! :-)

Thats a good question, and my answer is, yes that is a good idea. I currently have a different implementation of that same idea, but yours might be a little more concise. I have created a new topic for this patch because the scope is bigger than just having always available as a default. (which is implemented in the patch.) it might be better to extract it out of the larger patch, but seeing as this is all related, i just put them together.
