It's actually on-topic -- can you post your proposed patch to this bug
for inline review, please?  This is documented in README.md.  The main
reason we have MRs disabled is that we want a complete record of the
discussion that led up to a Policy change to be recorded in the BTS.

A secondary reason is that I strongly disprefer doing patch review using
an interface other than my mail client.
