My team would really love to be able to put a user into a state where every comment they make needs to be approved before it is posted publicly. This would allow admins to mute spammers and manage problematic users a little better.

The state already exists. wpForo has a built in Spam Control which has a "New Registered User" control subFunction. The "New registered user" status is the same "moderation" status. It's controlled by "User is New (under hard spam control) during" x posts option. It's set 3 by default. So new registered users posts become unapproved until they got 3 and more approved posts. You can set it more or less in Dashboard > Forums > Tools admin page:
