Review of a "revision cue" or "edit cue" works. You are right, as both
words "Flagged" and "Protections" convey an autocratic sense.

Note, on wikien-l, some are discussing what kind of "revert etiquette"
that Revision Review (formerly Flagged Protections) should use.
"Revert etiquette" seems inherently contradicted, though its at a good
sign that people are mindful that Revision Review can and probably
will be used in the wrong way.
