Does a wiki manage this?
Then everything is fine. If not, then either the software will have to
be improved in this aspect (which will be one of the goals of the
Beta) or you shouldn't use this setting of flagged revisions. In
particular young wikis should simply not use it.

and as I pointed out recently: if the wiki can not manage it that
would mean a great many edits are going completely without review.
That would be a very bad thing for a highly read Wiki (like the
primary language editions of Wikipedia), and arguably an unethical
situation.
If a popular project can't keep up with the reviewing then we need to
solve that problem.
I'm not too worried. If a popular project really couldn't keep up with
reviewing in a timely fashion the projects would be saturated with
vandalism. Flagging should make reviewing more efficient, so we should
have confidence.
Well, I wholeheartedly agree with you. There's nothing more to say on
that note :-)
