If a user is not able to directly edit the post, allow the edit to be suggested

I attempted to edit this post, but couldn't because I was attempting to change "moderator-only" tags.

The following errors prevented this post from being saved:

  • You don't have permission to change moderator-only tags.

If a user is unable to edit a post because of permissions, could there be an option to suggest the edit instead? (of course, only those with the proper permissions should be able to approve those edits)

This is a bit of a different case. Users without editing abilities are already send to suggest edits. If you want to add mod-only (red) tags, better flag the post. Will add a full answer later.
