Okay, I will try to think about an appropriate way to handle this issue.
You said that you run that kind of list where post-throttling will be
welcomed. I had a query, would you, as a list admin, want few people,
decided by you, to bypass this post-throttling mechanism?

Personally, I wouldn't want to specify a list of people to bypass the throttling, as that would be seen as taking sides, but I could imagine some list admins seeing it as useful.

On the other hand, I could see a use for putting selected people on throttling, with everyone else by default off (as an alternative to putting someone on moderation).

The one address that I wouldn't want throttled would be my "official" address as list-admin, but it wouldn't have enough posts on it to trigger the limits anyway.
