#2Good idea. It actually has been implemented already. You are also not very specific IMHO.
How do I know that after a million users you won't turn into another Mark Zuckerberg like czar?

Abuse and illegal content is a huge worry of mine. Maintaining a moderation working group is a concern at scale for sure. My aim is to adopt a volunteer moderation program similar to reddit.
