Hi! And thanks for raising this improvement!

I can understand how you would like to see and use a feature like this. However, there were a few design principles I've been trying to follow when implementing this. And among them was one that this module should not duplicate any existing Gradebook feature. In other words -- it is the Moodle gradebook reports where one should go to see the grades.

I am still on the fence on whether or not we should extend this extremely simple yet powerful module with additional unnecessary features (they significantly increase the cost of future maintenance of the module).

Thank you for understanding. I'll be happy to hear more reasons / use cases / user stories supporting this suggestion instead of relying on the Gradebook.
