This sounds like a great idea because as it is, everyone makes their own judgement as to whether to answer a question, and sooner or later someone may supply an answer! As I understand it, the moderator looks briefly at the content of every message to filter spam, so this might be a viable suggestion that would not involve Steven in any extra work. I am sure the work of moderation is considerable, and I think it is extremely important that we do not increase his workload - e.g. by suggesting he reply to deleted messages.
