thanks again.

I agree with the above. There is also the advantage of seeing what your mods are doing. Look at it this way, someone joins and a mod takes an immediate dislike to the person (maybe they know them from another board or IRL, not uncommon in smaller communities). The mod who you thought was working in your best interest bans this person and cleans away everything they've posted, which may not be much, but still it may have been non-offensive and good for the community. You, as the admin, have no idea this happened unless you notice that the banned usergroup went up by one or if they send an email to webmaster@ about the mod banning them for no good reason. With things being moved to a recycle bin/litter box/etc. then the admin can review what was posted and either agree with the ban or take it up with the mod.
And yes, I'm going to download and install this now but I would like to see this as a feature in the next release.
