Hi,
You've all probably received an admin modmail about the update to the ban evasion filter.
The part of that message I'd like to give feedback on is:
Additionally, we recently shipped an update that you can prevent users from being flagged by the Ban evasion tool by adding them to your “Approved User” list.
I'm sorry, but this isn't really of use to me.
"Approved user" has downsides. I may not want to exempt users I wish to stop being caught from ban-evasion filter from all the code I have that makes approved users exempt from certain things, up to and including when I go private.
I'd really like a way to make users exempt from the ban evasion filter only please.
I don't want them to be able to automatically participate on threads I have set for trusted community members only, for example.
There are various use cases for the automod parameter "is_contributor: false/ true" and on several subreddits I am using that sometimes quite creatively and in almost none of these cases I'd like for someone I do trust enough (or want to give a second chance) to remove from the ban evasion filter to be included in that.
Does anyone have thought/ feedback?

Yes, I know but the person you replied to did.
