Mark edit as pending review for all users from the same IP-address/range
Open, LowPublicFeature

Description

To block vandalism that is purely an attack on other users at the same IP-address (or range), like at a school, force the use of a stable version for some time after the edit. The editor himself should be able to see the edit, but not other users (readers) until the edit is reviewed or the timeout is reached.

Like the so called "deferred changes" proposal it's a feature request to make different configurations of FlaggedRevisions possible, yes.
