The problem with regular reviews here is that we might want to keep
temporary code or hacks as a temporary solution before we finalize it. A
regular review would have problems with that.

The reason against a fork is the requirement of CI. Since multiple people
are working on the same branch and we have to file PRs against each other,
it would cause problems if CI is only triggered after the fact.

Ideally, the branch will be in a good state and wouldn't need many chances
to be mergeable for master.
