Before I saw this post, I was about to counter-propose just that: a simple delay-to-live timer. Something similar could apply to page creation.
Perhaps the time-to-publish could be a dynamic figure based on the age of the editor making the change (anons have age 0, old editors go live faster), the frequency of changes of the page (more frequently edited pages go live faster) and the frequency of page views (less frequently viewed pages go live faster).
The idea being that an anon editing a rarely-edited page should go live slower, to give other editors a chance to see the edit. Maybe 24 hours or more...
