As a result, I think that for us mediation is more likely
to be useful much earlier in the process, as disputes are only beginning
and before they have really had a chance to heat up. This would require
watching more closely for situations where mediation can help, and a
more interventionist approach from the mediators, rather than waiting
for cases to come to them.
Once again, I think that's very true - but how can we get a system
where these conflicts are actually attended to that quickly?

We have RC patrol. Would a Mediation patrol be useful? It would be
fairly simple to set up a page to allow people to post disputes they
happen to come across. You can find many of them just by looking at
talk pages on Special:Recentchanges.
