Yes, exactly.
If we often take shortcuts with our own process,

The proposed trial period is not a high barrier, except to those who
really didn't want to being doing the work anyway. Note that There is
also an externality to having account
I'd say there is something wrong with the process. If a trusted
developer can't get somebody more privilege on the tracker by saying
that "I trust this guy", then a new process is needed. That's it's too
