I'm glad that attention was brought. I hope it will change at least some aspects. As well i have proposal. In some blogs except deletion there is also option to hide posts, and i mean not by single user, in general. Instead of post there would be link with something like "this post may be found offensive" or "light offtopic here" or even the reason the mod gives for that. And by default those "marked" by moderators posts will be hide and link(or button) would just show it, so forum will be clean, but some people might find it usefull read even those posts. It's just proposal and i do not expect it.

Btw how TMO is modified from original vBulletin and if there are any sources? Earlier you mentioned that it might take time to mods activity, so i think maybe if there would be source on some git hosting, users not only can give proposals but push commits with working solution or at least WIP and it might be decided to accept those or not.
