Yeah, the "Xprint" product in freedestkop.org's bugzilla has a "review?"
flag for such purposes. A while ago I've asked around whether there is
any interest to enable that flag for the "Xorg" bugzilla product, too -
but there was no consens which method Xorg should use (simple {
"review?" }, { "first-review?", "second-review?" } or { "review?" and
"superreview?" } - that are the three most common methods (ignoring the
"approval-*"-stuff which is more a management thing than a technical
review)).
A quick workaround may be to just enable the "review?" flag for the Xorg
component to get patches reviewed on demand... I can do that with a new
clicks but I think at least one of the XOrg directors should sign this
change off...

Oh my g*d... ;-(

Effectively this causes confusion as there is now zero control over
which patches have already been put into Xorg trunk and which not -
which is usually a requirement _before_ people should start asking
approval for the patches... ;-/

Erm, it was just working for _one_ case (of now a few dozend patches)
because I have to go througth all the patches for which approval is
being requested... but I am not an expert for all the code and I doubt
I'll catch everything...

P.S.: I don't own the domain "gisburn.org", just the Bidi counterpart
"nrubsig.org" (so any emails send to roland.mainz at gisburn.org are either
going to /dev/null or someone who is surprised to get such emails... :)
