Right now, to find out if there are questions in the queue to be moderated, I have to click on “moderation” and see how many there are. Is it possible to instead make it so that, on the moderation link, it instead says something like “moderation (12)”? This way, we’d know exactly how many are in the queue, and we wouldn’t get huge, sudden dumps of moderated questions pushing everything out of the way (because the moderators would notice the link more often).
I just realized that this feature has been added, so consider this question answered and closed.
