Yes, I mean this identification. The tools would have button like
"needs review by expert" which would have similar effect like "skip"
but the edit would be enqueued somewhere so that experts could review
it later and revert in case if it wasn't correct.

Only task what would need to be done by a bot or so would be clean up
of this list (categorizing of edits etc).

For example I know something about computers, but definitely not about
geography or history. So I could just list all "suspicious edits" for
pages in category "information technology" and revert / confirm as OK
all edits in it (or those I know). While someone else, who is for
example expert on geography could review these edits where someone for
example changed the size / population added some dubious or weird
content about some country, which I can't confirm is wrong neither
correct myself.

These days I am testing huggle 3 as I am working on it (even on
production, shame on me) thus I get in a role of "vandal fighter". And
I can tell you that every day I skip hundreds of edits which I
personally think that should be reviewed by someone because they
looked weird to me, but which I didn't revert because I couldn't
confirm it was vandalism either. Having evidence of such edits would
help us not overlook these changes.
