 moderator accidentally "approves" - and then realizing their mistake -
 quickly undoes the approval action. I don't know how often a scenario like
 that occurs to users other than me.

 This is a valid concern and something I've done a few times. Perhaps a
 delay of 5 minutes or so could be added to the action to give people more
 than enough time to correct a mistake without sending the email.
