We could implement this policy for the stable branch, but for the
development branch it means much work due the more frequent changes;
and the latency for getting a change distributed is high again.
(Please note that even my first proposal doesn't make anything worse
than it it is done currently. Current procedure is that one person
makes a change, releases it (including the binary package). And then
other people can review the change; I believe this almost never
happens.)
