Allow high-level editors to assign low-lev editors a higher level for a defined area
Allow high-level editors to assign low-lev editors a higher level for a defined area.
In active areas of constructions/modifications of new/existing roads there might be a lot of adjustments of primary roads/highways (L4/5) which a midlevel (L3) have better local knowledge of the progress.
Today we have to request that a set of segments have be opened (lowered level) and later restored.
I propose that a high level (L5/6) editor can assign a user a higher level for a specific area and maybe specific time-period (the same way as a comment can cover an area)

Great idea. In a rural area, it's hard to get multiple-thousands of edits to hit the next level threshold. There should be an application process for people of lower levels to be able to increase their level without having a minimum point threshold to attain.
