How about providing this minimal amount of mechanism:
a) A way of marking a particular edit as a "milestone."
b) The ability to mark an edit as a milestone would be suitably restricted to people, probably sysops, who would agree to be governed by discussion, consensus, policy, etc. TBD.
Instead of restricting the power to sysops, everyone (registered) should be able to vote, with clear criteria. You'd get something like the recommended diaries at Daily Kos.
*Or* the process of becoming a sysop should become automated so that most regular users are sysops.
