<p>One workaround is this: Post a question without marking it as CW but request users not to vote for the question but to vote up answers as appropriate. This is not a perfect solution because of two issues:</p>

<ol>
<li>Some users may still vote for the question and</li>
<li>More importantly, if the question is not voted up its prominence will go down over time.</li>
</ol>

<p>A solution to issue 2 would be to make dummy edits at some reasonable frequency (perhaps once in 2 days for a week's duration) to ensure that at periodic intervals the question comes to the front page.</p>
