I think this is a good idea, though I have to say when we were using
DocImpact in this way, it kills conversational dialog on the mailing list
because all the robots start talking on your list as more people use the
flag. We have since moved to automatically logging a doc bug rather than
posting to the mailing list.

Still, I think it's worth trying for OpsImpact because there's not a
secondary place to log the impactful patches. Nice idea, Tim!
