Hi Thanks for the idea! I like to require branches to be up to date before merging: the merge queue provides basically similar protection, but more "flexible" when a lot of PRs are merged every day.
I checked from ASF standpoint, and the merge queue can be enabled without issue (at infra level). I don't think we need anything in the .asf.yaml, but if needed we have to create a ticket to infra (if needed and after consensus here).
