IMHO, a much more workable solution is to use pull requests just like for any other branch. If someone is requesting a merge to a release branch, then they should assemble the pull request and submit it. If you are deciding a fix should be merged to the release branch, put together the pull request just like anyone else would. That gains several advantages:

1) gives a good chance to review exactly what changes are going to be made
  2) gives the auto-tester a chance to validate then changes
  3) gives a chance for additional eyeballs to be watching for mistakes

The only con is that it's more steps, but without those steps, the gains aren't possible. For any regular developer, putting together a pull request is something they can do in their sleep, so the cost is pretty small.
Yeah, let's test the merging as well.
