Description:
Not sure whether this is feasible or reasonable at all, but consider allowing to sight a page by a null edit.

User(s) reported they wanted to edit an article, but didn't do any changes in the end. By checking "review this revision" below the edit box they wanted to at least sight that yet un-sighted article 'on-the-fly' (but without dummy editing the article > null edit (does refresh cache)). But this doesn't work yet, although form data probably is sumbited very well to the server.

For some users, sighting an article goes with editing; this seems to be their workflow.

Flagging works, but:
pages flagged like this still show up in RecentChanges with a red exclamation mark and the .mw-fr-reviewlink link (no cache effect).
The .mw-fr-reviewlink link leads to a 'one-rev' comparision (comparing rev with itself / latest).
