You've pretty much described "Flagged revisions" (1), which has been in testing since 2008 or thereabouts and has been adopted by a bunch of non-English Wikipedias, most notably German. Despite years of debate about the pros and cons, it has not been adopted on the English WP, although a very watered down version called "Pending changes" has been live since Dec 2012 (2).

- bane 12y agoSo why isn't PC2012 the way of the world? An important feature of my proposal is also to hold reviewers accountable...a notable feature that's missing in the current WP world. (I'm sure there's some purposefully byzantine process to do so today, but hell if a casual contributor can figure it out).
