Yes, I think this is switched off on en: only.
That's something I've wanted to see change for a long time.

I understand the concerns that have been mentioned about vandalism, but
that's why I mention it in the context of flagged revisions. We operate
on a fundamental premise that anyone should be able to edit. Sometimes

should focus on those that don't completely disable some people's
editing ability.
