Let mods sticky comments in posts which stem not from mods

Background: I run a food sub.

Oftentimes an author provides a recipe. Since this sometimes can take some time, other comments may already have been posted by the time the author does provide it.

It would be helpful to make such a recipe comment a sticky for such a post.

I can think of tons of other use cases.

Yup.100% a good idea. We can already do it for the posts themselves.

Am not entirely sure how this should work. My sub runs a quite elaborate house bot. I'm not aware that there's a PRAW possibility to enable this...

I am no dev, I don't really follow what you're saying.. but while I haven't tried this specific app, for most you only need to add the app account as a mod with the right perms, and some have a configuration page on the developer platform or your wiki and that's it.

Reach out to the dev if you need help.

Do you run a sub sub? A sub for sub sandwiches? Lol
