be used to provide a specific message for a blank (empty or all white-space) input box, as the blank_postfilter runs before AnswerHints so AnswerHints cannot handle this. The cmp() call can now include message_for_blank_answer => "Do not leave this box empty" to set one possible message.

This looks good, and is not a bad idea. |

I was asked to trigger a answer feedback message on blank input boxes is some cases (ex. where
DNEis needed, but a student may leave the box blank). I could not get that to work usingAnswerHintsas theblank_postfilterruns beforeAnswerHints.A workaround was to remove all post filters and the install a modified version of the
blank_postfilterwhich sets a message.I am proposing adding a new setting
message_for_blank_answerwhich can be used to provide a specific message for a blank (empty or all white-space) input box, which is a much simpler approach and easily reused.After this PR the
cmp()call can includemessage_for_blank_answer => "Do not leave this box empty"to set one possible message.
