Yep, there should be, but again in practise it's not really going to work. 
It could take weeks or months to go through that process, and websites can 
change their content continuously.  By the time some review comes up, the 
content could have changed, which un-blocks it anyway, or after some ruling 
the content could change again which then blocks it again.

Better to just fine-tune the blocking policies as time goes on and live with 
a few border-line sites that are classified incorrectly.
