I might as well document our current progress.

1. We now suppress the "very low quality" option. It is only available on closed questions or posts with a score less than 1.
2. To eliminate load on Stack Overflow only, we now suppress all the close flags. They are still visible in the 10k queue
3. Close flags are "self curing". If a user casts a close vote on a post with close flags, the close flag is dismissed as valid.
4. If the close flag is disputed by the community, it is always shown in the mod queue
5. We added rich filtering, so you can work on specific flag types
6. SO Only, we suppress VLQ flags from the mod queue for a period of time, in case they are self curing
