And this trusted editor leverl would also let us go for a moderation
of publicly editable pages. Anyone can edit them, but if it's an
anonymous edit, put the changes in a wait queue that trusted editors
(moderators) have to validate before the content gets published.
This opens a syncing and merging changes issue: how to merge between
two or more changesets which are waiting for approval? An action
plugin which can call a real external VCS/SCM would be needed.
