Matthias, I agree with you that the basic problem is that the .LRN sponsoring of Simple Sequencing (and Assessment?) is constantly behind the next corner. I can only note that these learning features are still not prioritized by the .LRN funders. However, IMHO, this doesn't justify starting on some half-hearted ad hoc implementation of these standard features (that's not what .LRN needs, anyway).
In the meantime you might want to install Curriculum and have your class admins organize their learning content that way ...
