I think it's a character flaw (maybe hubris due to lack of experience
and/or ignorance?) to lack the humility to say that I would prefer my
commits to be reviewed by peers.

It is obviously easier to stick my head in the sand, but then I
should probably keep my crap in an overlay. (I do, and am happy!)

If I were committing to gentoo I would want help from my peers to
ensure that what I commit is not just done well but also done right.

I suspect that it's rare. Most developers are in my experience unable
to work with review.

Another significant benefit of review, besides the obvious quality benefit.

I think this is a lovely idea! I'd really like that setup!
