Does that mean we can have both flagging, and optional pre-publication moderation? I think we might want to start out with pre-publication moderation turned on, and then turn it off in a month or two if (a) the volume gets too much for manual moderation or (b) we're confident we have automatic filters for as much bad stuff as we can. And then turn it back on temporarily if anyone ever tries to flood the review service.

As for the original question about Review.hide, with a sufficiently large number of users, people will flag reviews for all kinds of spurious reasons, maybe even by accident. It would then be the job of a moderator to look not at every flagged review, but at those reviews that have been flagged the most times.
