Sorry to derail the thread just a little, but I've thought a little
about this and I wonder if part of the problem is just that some of
the patches are really large: doing a really thorough job reviewing is
quite demanding, and the amount and kind of lore everyone has at their
disposal is different.

To get to the point, I wonder if it makes sense for someone who has a
better sense a-priori what they're looking for in a committable patch
(i.e. a committer, or someone with a telepathic link to one or more)
to delegate specific pieces of patches for thorough review, sketching
some thoughts about pitfalls or hazards to look for.  Think of it as a
patch checklist that is informed by the experience of a committer
skimming its contents.
