I would support something like that, or better yet, perhaps having the
default for semi-protection be that the 'edit this page' tab is still
there and active, but when you click it and you can't edit, you get a
nice explanation there that yes, anyone can edit, but that for this
particular page, you can't edit it at this moment.
For the avoidance of doubt, this would be in the form of boilerplate text at
the top of the usual "display source" mode, right, so the wikitext would be
visible like normal?
Makes good sense to me, so long as we provide adequate explanation of why
they can't edit this page at this time, and give them some way of
determining when the limitation will lift for them.
