There is no feature like this that I know of.

However, there is a feature that can block editing by a specific user.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/blocks

A user should be a Moderator to be able to create temporary blocks on
other users.
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Web_front_end#Permissions_and_roles

The OSM foundation's Data Working Group is tasked to assign a
Moderator privileges.   There are no criteria at the moment.  I don't
know if there is a PH contributor who is a moderator.

just wondering ...

is there a way, or, I hope there is a way where the roads and POIs can be
"locked" by "qualified or certified" mappers.  Where certain edits
(especially for changes to already correct entities in the map) can only be
done by such mappers?  Or maybe where such mappers can easily retract the
effects of the changesets?

just wondering ...

Follow-up: Yup, he does seem to have a non-public trace uploaded (which is
accessible as anonymous traces in Potlatch and other editors) and he
completely adjusted the roads to match the zigzags of the trace. I am now
trying to revert his edits.

You can use the following changeset analysis to check out his shape edits:
http://osm.cdauth.eu/history-viewer/changeset.php?id=4421045
http://osm.cdauth.eu/history-viewer/changeset.php?id=4410576

I've already sent him a message, by the way.

This user  has edited many roads
in Metro Manila.

These two changesets are quite problematic:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/4410576 (update taguig and
tondo)
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/4421045 (aligned road)

He has no public traces and he has changed the shape of some roads for the
worse.

I think that he has recorded some traces and didn't realize that the GPS is
affected by the urban canyon effect.
