That's simple enough... stick just the official ones, and we'll make sure search queries and filters work via the command line.
So that if you embed you could just have "?search=sticky:true" (or something like that) only return the filtered list.
It will be possible for a site admin to prevent people creating Microcosms. So alternatively you could do that.
However, I've seen that the best engagement from people has been because they've been able to create forums for their needs, and those needs always start small and grow. i.e. Polo, Ladies, Track, etc on here.
So if you do choose to restrict permissions such that only an admin can create Microcosms, then you really should be listening to what the community needs are.
Example, I could imagine that polo teams within a community actually might want to create their own little space to discuss tactics, training, secret weapons, etc.
So I'd probably advocate just using the sticky and filter so that way you don't restrict what users can do too much. The choice is wholly yours though.
I think I might have actually answered your question this time.
