I know about similar requests, but after stumbling over this questionquestion (just an example; question poster answered himself using edits instead of an answer) I thought you should at least add an option in the flagging menu like "problem is solved in comments/edits". Then, moderators (or high-rep users) should be able to check this and maybe accept the question itself or convert the edit/comment into an answer that could at least get upvoted to show it is solved. What does the community/staff think about this?
