But the important thing is that not all admins do everything. A user who has never reverted a single vandal can become an admin as much as a user who has never tagged an article for speedy deletion, or written a featured article. This system would prevent that.
I think you have it the wrong way round.
Under the present system, an admin candidate who comes up on RfA having not done any vandal fighting probably attracts a slew of oppose !votes from people saying "has not demonstrated any need for the tools". Under my proposal, there would be an opportunity for other editors to say that the user had no experience of this aspect of adminship, but it would be up to the closing bureaucrat to say whether this lack of experience demonstrated unsuitability as a whole. I would expect, if the candidate had good experience of other areas, that it wouldn't pose a problem.
