I don't think this is how it should work. This is a pretty big change in
voting process, it should be discussed *first*, and only then merged, if
it's agreeable. Going back to the old "first merge, then maybe discuss
if enough people protest" is not a good development. It's not the PHP
source code but the community environment now but it doesn't differ - we
should still do it the right way. I don't see this change as anything
urgent or necessary to be put in immediately, and there are obvious
objections from many people - myself included, btw. So let's please
first back off the controversial change and then discuss it.

Nobody looked at this PR or knew it is going to be merged. That's why we
have a process of announcing things and initiating discussion - because
most people don't regularly review all pulls that are pending in all repos.
