Side note: you can see in the assignment dialog when this has happened, as it shows a negative unassigned value in red and won't let you click OK while this remains the case. But right now it's not visible in the main period UI.
If you create an objective with a certain resource estimate, add assignments, and then reduce the estimate to a value less than the assignments, you bring about a situation where there are more resources assigned to an objective than it is actually estimated to require.
Right now, it's easy not to notice this, thereby leaving the objective over-assigned, which means that this surplus people-time gets wasted, and cannot be assigned to other objectives.
I can think of two main ways of improving this:
I prefer the second option. We could just turn the entire assignment red if it adds up to more than the resource estimate.
