Can't highlight text within a quiz box #58

e.g. I tried to highlight understated "Principia Mathematica" in the first quiz but it didn't seem to let me.

Hi, this is intentional for now. The highlighting feature is only intended for use with static text and not interactive widgets like the quizzes. But we might enable that in the future!

If the highlights function as a tool to "give us feedback — for example, if you think a section of content is confusing," then it makes sense to be able to say, "hey, this explanation was a bit unclear for xyz reason" within a quiz widget. So I'm a bit confused about why this is intentional behavior, because it seems that there's genuine value (for both authors and readers) that quiz comments could create.

@neilramaswamy for now, if you have feedback on a quiz, please use the quiz-specific feedback feature. It's the little bug icon in the top right of each question.
