As I wrote on IRC: I really wonder how you want to define the level of
functionality (e.g. "file manager" vs "copy", "paste", etc), how to
check the student's results for completeness, and what to use it for
(Automated tests that somebody would have to write first)...?

Sounds like not easily to define at all.
