Mmm, this reads to me like a bit of a mis-understanding. Hinges on what
Jonas means by "before the patch gets accepted." The phrase is slightly
confusing because we have an Accepted state in Trac, but that applies to
tickets, in concept, not to specific patches.

Declining to do additional patch work before the _ticket_ is marked
Accepted is reasonable and consistent with our usual process. Marking
the ticket accepted only means that the general idea is accepted in
principle, it does not validate the specific approach in any existing patch.

Docs and tests are, of course, required before any patch is actually
committed. In my reading of this thread, I think that's already understood.

Aymeric mentioned that tests and/or docs would clarify the intent of
some of the tickets, which isn't clear enough for him to even accept or
decline the ticket in concept. In that case, I think it would make sense
to close the ticket "needsinfo" with specific comments on what about the
feature request is not clear enough to evaluate. (Patch review shouldn't
even be necessary in order to move a ticket from Unreviewed to Accepted
or closed, IMO - the ticket description itself ought to provide clear
enough motivation for that).
