@jonny sounds like something pretty essential that should be rolled into base Masto if it's good enough with resources.
I'm aware people have very different ideas of what Masto should be (and changes/projects often end up in a half-way house that please neither).
This should please everyone - it solves a long-standing moderation problem *and* makes Masto look more lively. So well done.
@jonny Also, I know it's the last thing on your mind right now - but after the current roadmap any chance of using it for like and retoot numbers too?
