Anything which is substantial enough to warrant this kind of 'staging'
definitely wants to be *pulled* into the main tree, rather than
rebasing it onto the current master, losing accurate history and
invalidating the testing that's been done.

The 'Reviewed-by' and similar tags could be collected by the submitter
and added in their own tree (leaving them in control of whether they
rebase, and responsible for subsequent retesting everything).

Perhaps better still, the Reviewed-by: could be included in the *merge*
commit.

Either way, let's not further entrench incorrect rebase behaviour.
