Or even better - what if they need to request specific bots? That is: the bot needs human consent to act on first place. That means that bots will be only used if they're clearly useful for the instance, community or the user, not just a "yeah this bot is annoying and adding noise but why bother?"

I need to do some experiments to find out what happens if a bot is tagged in a community they're not subbed to. It may be that this is exactly what I can do - it'd be a request by a user, then the mod can ban it if they want. I don't know whether I can do something where only a mod can invite, I'll have to see if there's anything that might help there
