User blog comment:Opei/Suggestion: Request page for global checkuser./@comment-1038387-20140512204004

I think Checkuser is a tool that should not be handed out willy-nilly. Staff can hand it out to people they trust, usually in combination with another function. If you need a user checked, you contact staff and plead your case.

I'm not very active in those circles, but I don't think there's a backlog of users to be checked, so there's no real "need" for more.
