Some users can now bypass recommendation moderation

[sothis]

In an attempt to figure out ways to delegate or automate procedures so I have more time to do other things, I've added a flag to user accounts for 'trusted' recommenders. Users flagged as trusted will have their recommendations visible immediately, without having to wait for moderation.

As a note, if you make recommendations and find that you still have to wait through moderation, please don't take it personally! Most people will not be flagged with this value - it's only a very small subset of people who:

1. submit a LOT of recommendations (as if they've submitted a lot, I have a good idea if the person understands how to make recs and know how often I've had to flag them)

2. have consistently been able to pass moderation without any need for flagging (if you've had recs flagged in the near future, odds are I won't flag your account for a bit of time, till I can make sure the feedback has been absorbed)

This should help the 'power recommenders' (ie, people who recommend a ton and know what they're doing ^^) not have to wait for moderation, and will save me a lot of time too. Just wanted to point this out in case you notice that your recs have started showing up immediately. ^_^ I've only marked a few people at this point - I'll remember more to flag once people keep submitting recs.
