There is an extension for mediawiki to allow reviewing and marking revisions 
of a page as stable. Imho this would make it a lot easier to participate in 
the changing of acl-restricted pages:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:FlaggedRevs

Of course it needs to be tested how good this works with the acl system in 
place. I already created an ticket in the Infrastructure trac to collect 
information about this:

I agree, having some pages that may be edited is only confusing.
