I believe @jomaxro already has a topic about this, so this’d be a dupe. Worth it for him to check.

This is also a fair bit of work for what’s honestly quite rare – plus, there’s already a way to handle this. You can easily manually create a discussion topic in the staff category as needed, and I find that “let’s discuss behavior X and whether it is something we want or not” is a _far_ more useful discussion than “let’s discuss flag X”.
