This is a little too open to gaming for my liking.  A lot of afds which 
are closed as speedy actually are speedies, it is usually that the nom 
is unaware of the fact.  If we acted as you suggest we would allow a 
gaming of the system in which people could delay deletion through adding 
an afd tag to an article which desperately should be speedied.  Some 
people simply want the article because of driving traffic or playing google.
