As a non-committer, I want to make a plea for non-committer approval
reviews, or at least that they have a place. When asked how outsiders can
contribute I frequently see "review open PRs" as a suggested way of
contributing to CPython. Not being able to approve PRs that are good would
be a barrier to those contributions.

Furthermore, I am collaborating with a couple of core devs, it would make
collaboration more difficult if I couldn't review their work and say that I
thought the changes looked good.

I know "drive by approvals" are annoying but I think it is unfortunately
part of open source projects.
