I'm trying to duplicate the "comment without approval" functionality for forums-- allow registered users to post without moderation while sending anonymous posts into a queue. Is there any support for moderation-by-role in this module, or suggestions for another option?

Thanks

You can implement a very small custom module to do this sort of thing, but there is no direct support in core for it.

For sample code for 4.7.x, see: http://drupal.org/node/113696

and also: http://drupal.org/update/modules since this would need to be converted to 5.x

In the referenced node for Drupal 4.7, a link to an updated patch for 5.x is provided.
But:
* what is actually needed for Drupal 5.2 is more like the 4.7 patch than the 5.x patch. (Confusing.)
* if you integrate that 'mini module' into modr8 itself, you can adjust the messages & default settings to the behaviour.

Here's the patch for 5.2. In this patch, I've named the extra permission "bypass moderation".

Ditto

This is also exactly what I require from modr8 - the posts of anonymous users goes into a queue.

I will evaluate the patch, but it needs to become part of the modr8 module ASAP!
