My hunch is that we start with just editing existing accomplishments
right now, but in the future it include adding new ones. Part of why
adding new ones is more complex is that each community accomplishment
requires a verification script (in the /scripts/ dir).

Absolutely, does
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Accomplishments/Creating#Create_an_.accomplishment_file
this help?

My hunch is that for now we just accept or reject.

I am not sure. My hunch was that this could work in a similar way to a
merge proposal in Launchpad - there is a short conversation thread
somewhere while the contribution is evaluated. Do you think that makes
sense?
