Though I think we probably could do with some better tools or tool
improvements
so we handle reviews of long series of dependent changesets better. As at
least in my experience, patches
in a dependent series tend to get reviewed a bit randomly and review effort
is effectively lost on the later
changesets when the inevitable rebase is required.
