It is unclear to me that there really are that many cases of people who are extremely annoying in some areas, but whose help would be so valuable in other areas.
My original thought was to allow edits to Talk (and user and project) space but not article space - like protection in reverse. It would reduce the number of protected articles, because where there is an edit war we just confine the warriors to Talk for a while until they've hammered out their differences.
