I suspect he may be talking submitting a request from from 
http://www.informationfreeway.org/ which still offers a zoom 8 render 
option but does appear to kick off a z12 render for the matching tile 
coords.
I think i may also have created a spurious request using 
http://tah.openstreetmap.org/Request/create/ when i was not sure of the 
lowzoom process on the new server.
I noticed it when randomly browsing user pages.
On this user page http://tah.openstreetmap.org/User/show/byid/22/ you 
can currently see a request for x,y=62,41 zoom=12-17 layer=lowzoom
Which matched a z6 lowzoom request I submitted via the request page.
