Should Manifold Markets implement this feature: Propose a question for someone else to judge

The way this feature would work is that I create a market, but instead of judging it myself, I want someone else to judge it. Once the market is created, it would work sort of like a pull-request, in that it remains in-active until and unless the proposed judge accepts it. (If the judge rejects it, it just gets deleted). There would probably need to a mechanism to prevent a malicious user from spamming people they doesn't like with spurious or obscene questions. One option is to allow judges to block users from proposing questions, but I think a better option would be to require question proposers to use M$ in order to propose a question. This M$ could be treated as a bond, such that they get it back if the judge accepts the question, but they lose it if the judge does not. I'm not sure who should get the reward for resolving the market. The simple / easy options are that it goes to the judge, or gets split between the judge and the proposer. A more complex variation is that the proposer and judge can agree on the split as part of the process for accepting the question. The rationale for this feature is that I might have markets that I want to create which I don't think I'm qualified to judge, or which I don't have enough credibility to judge well (that is, people might not trust me to resolve it properly). But I know of a user who I believe is qualified to judge it, or who has a lot more credibility. I could ask them to make the market, but I can set up the market for them, they're likelier to say yet. Resolution: I commit to resolving this question according to whichever option gets the most support (i.e., "no" if %chance is less than 50, "yes" if % chance is greater than 50, and "N/A" if % chance is exactly 50).
