I like the idea personally - mostly because I want to feel somewhat
confident that patches - some of which I don't understand as well as I
could or pertain to type/providers that I don't use - are at least
partially reviewed.  I find having the patch in your face in your email
seems to make people look more closely.

Obviously there are some issues here with work flow that I am going to
try to work through shortly and document.

One issue is of course that Trac relies on local repositories and my
primary is currently GitHub.  We might need to rethink that.

Cheers

James
