I don't really have a strong opinion here though I do favour everything
going through Gerrit just so that everyone who's watching the project in
Gerrit has visibility into what others are doing.

BTW, I can't agree with this argument about the verify jobs though. If jobs
are failing, we're in a world of hurt anyways. Maybe this will help raise
the visibility of that.
