Isn’t this a yes and no? eg. “please edit out my confidential info” isn’t really a “something is bad” Flag. No problem if the moderator remembers to defer / ignore. But if there is a mistake, the flag could count against the poster unfairly.

Is there code in place to take a self-flag into consideration?
