Description

In the new assignment builder when you create a new exercise (like mChoice) the author field is blank. It isn't clear what will be put there if you don't enter anything. Show what the value will be (the person who is entering the new question).

Research direction

Start by locating the new assignment builder and its author field, then inspect how a newly created exercise such as mChoice gets its default author. Done means the field visibly shows the person entering the question when no author is entered, with the existing builder behavior preserved.
