User blog comment:DaNASCAT/Introducing New Moderator Opportunities For Community Administration/@comment-25999606-20160115052046/@comment--20160115173256

While I see the value in the idea, this seems to be adding a layer of technical complexity to a social issue - the issue being simply that your community may not have enough active admins to be able to block users in a timely manner. Many communities will not want their moderators to be able to block and there's no way in the MediaWiki software to allow users to block other users for just one day. Either they have the block right or they do not.
