On a related note, what about extending this filter to place suspected
spam messages into a configurable queue, making sure incorrectly
classified mails aren't lost.

Something like this would make this configurable.  Is this a usable
extention?

One could also add several spam levels with associated actions/queues,
making it possible to throw away mail with very high spam score, and
queue in a special spam queue the mail with lower spam score.
