Since it's been over two years without any further information provided, we're closing this Jira issue for now. If more details become available in the future, we can reopen it. Thank you.

The facility already exists for institutions to change the default of No, not after due date, as we discussed in https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAM-2798. It should not be a problem to change the default in OOTB sakai and make it No, not after due date.
Because there's already an easy way to change the default No, not after due date to Yes, until at the institutional level, I don't think additional development is needed to create a new property.
It does seem buggy that the Yes, until field currently defaults to the date/time of loading the Settings page. It would make more sense to have the field default to equal the due date upon selecting the Yes, until option. If the due date field is null by default, the Yes, until field should also be null.

Regarding the 3rd bullet point,yes the Late Submission default should be "No, not after due date" instead of "Yes, until..." as that is the most widely used case. If time permits to add a property allowing institutions to change behavior, then this should still be the OOTB behavior.

David Hutchins has proposed some design proposals for addressing this issue. Need to find a developer who can devote time to this.
Tiffany Stull notes that Due Dates in Samigo should not be forced/required.
Neal will change this to a feature request.

On the settings page, a few things seem unnecessary from the screenshot and should be improved.
The due date is either empty or set to the current time. It seems like it should default to now + 1 week similar to assignments
There is a checkbox next to "and has a time limit" it seems like just putting any value other than 0h / 0m would trigger the time limit, remove this check box and maybe separate out this time limit box
Late submissions seem fine, but I feel like this "Yes until" box should probably be empty forcing the user to enter a date. Ideally it would set it to whatever the due date is at the time if you went into here but it can't be before the due date.
It's just kind of confusing to set these settings and they're having some issues when setting extended time.
