   @jonkeane well it is closely related, if we don't manage to get the 
permission working (which is the case based on you findings) there will also 
not be a way to do the rebase and we can remove both steps in this PR.
   
   Good catch with the docs, this is def. something that worked previously but 
it seems that they removed this possibility with the rework of default 
permissions this year. The setting mentioned above is something we/INFRA will 
never enable for security reasons as it would remove the protections that the 
`pull_request` trigger gives us and allow for all kinds of bad things to 
happen^^ IIUC this is meant for use within orgs for private repos where you 
want to use private forks instead of branches.
   
   So the conclusion seems to be that this is not possible anymore in an 
automated way? Individuals with  `write` access to the base repo(apache/arrow) 
can still manually push changes to the fork branch if the checkmark 
'Maintainers are allowed to edit this pull request.' is set but the generated 
`GITHUB_TOKEN`'s can't? + changes via web gui. :/
