If it was set during the submission it could provide an insight to
reviewers to the level of difficulty. Maybe that could help reviewers
pick the "correct" entry.

Of course there would need to be a link to the Wiki with a description
of each of the levels.

The committer could of course always change the level upon Rejected,
Returned with Feedback or Committed.
