Flagging edits is a good idea, but anything more customisable than "show me all Recent Changes that HAVEN'T GOT an 'RC Cleared' flag attached to them" is asking for server trouble. Somebody more qualified than me should probably be tackling this, though.
Well, the "RC cleared flag" need not be a flag; it can be an integer. Theoretically, we can assign pretty much any meaning to pretty much any integer. For example, we could view it as a "score", and people can increase or decrease the score depending on whether they think the edit was good or not. Then we can show everything below, say, 5 in yellow and everything below 0 in red. Thanks to the power of CSS, these colours would be entirely customisable without any further code changes.
Currently (the way I have made it so far) this integer can only take the values 0 or 1, and once it is set to 1, it cannot be changed anymore.
