Description

It would be nice to be able to edit the dates of assignments from the Assignment Builder itself without having to click on and go into editing an individual assignment, like we can edit the visibility of each assignment.

I was going to fill out a corresponding bug report that after going into an assignment (to edit the dates, for example) and then clicking to go back to the Assignment Builder page, all the settings revert to the default: ordered by name and 25 on a page, etc, rather than whatever the user had chosen and been looking at before entering the assignment, which made having to enter an assignment to edit dates extra annoying, but it appears that behavior has been fixed in the last couple of days!

Research direction

Start at the Assignment Builder UI and compare its visibility editing controls with the date editing flow for an individual assignment. Trace how assignment dates are loaded and saved, then verify that dates can be edited directly in the builder without opening an individual assignment.
