Yes, for sure. I think I like locking coins/promising coins (escrowing) better than Boost POWing them (sorry @cosmosstag), but they'd both be cool for costly signalling.

my problem with using pow to signal in a messaging tool is that none of the users are getting paid

I agree. I think making a question a honeypot, or at the least people able to unlock their coins at some point gamifies the thing more and keeps people engaged. I think Daniel would say the only pure costly signal is to spend the coins with no other benefit. Then the signal is a handicap.
