Some of us over in #mobile brainstormed a list of things that reviewers (and patch-writers) should check for in patches. The idea is to have a handy list of these things that often get forgotten, overlooked, or otherwise slip through. I have put up our list on the MDN wiki at [1] - please feel free to add/update (and most importantly, use!) the page.

Some of the items are specific to working on Fennec, so I tried to make that clear by annotating those items. Also note that the list is specifically *not* intended for new contributors at Mozilla, because I expect it to evolve to contain arcane gotchas and stuff (if it hasn't already) that would generally be overwhelming for new contributors. For new contributor patches, I expect that the reviewer/mentor would use the checklist to identify specific problems.
