Yup.

It is already now the case that there is a disconnect between
discussing code, or a concrete problem, and the subsequent gerrit
patch submission (case in point: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/3699,
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/3698 and Noel Grandin's conversion
operators for UNO thread), I'm very hesitant to widen that gap.

Devil's advocate question: with that two-list proposal, where to
discuss a given patch? ;)
