Page protection currently is limited to either no
protection or protection against all but sysops.
Policy places strict limitations on sysop edits of
protected pages.
A second tier of protection may be useful, if it
allows for edits by logged-in users only. This would
be equivalent to a Localsettings.php requiring log-ins
for all edits, only particular for each page. This
could provide for some gradation in how protection is
applied, and save some hassles regarding an the
current on-off system.
In 1.5, there is group-based control for actions. The 1.5 DB schema
seems to support per-page restrictions (not sure if/how MW supports this).
And the logged-in to edit was implemented as an option back in 1.3, I think.
