Answer aggregation in Open Endend and Brainstorm questions

Answer aggregation in Open Endend and Brainstorm questions

In this two types of questions:
Same answers of different participants are presented in results as different proposals.
This is not good for the second step of the question, since participants have to vote for the best proposals.
The votes are then spread over different proposals whereas it is the same one.

I wish to have two options do deal with this issue:

  1. a check box option "Regroup same answer" and there I mean "equivalent answers" in the configure question panel. For exact same answers, i think automatic regroupement should be the default behavior.
  2. a drag&drop mechanism to manually merge two (or more) proposals and sum votes during the second step
I think this would be a great improvement for these types of questions.
