You can't put new features and bug fixes in the same basket. They can even be
viewed as steering the compiler in opposite directions quality-wise. If you
don't want to increase the patches-per-day ratio, the only solution is to
prioritize bug fixes over new features. For example we could introduce
secondary maintainers with approval rights for bug fixes only or something
along these lines.
I agree wholeheartedly. There could be tweaks like s/approval/review/
(in the sense that they cannot approve their own fixes) or restricting
these reviewers to regressions. But in general I think it's a very good
starting point!
