Another issue we haven't discussed yet is commit permissions. Right

uhh, why? I think the lack of fine grained ACLs is an extremely useful feature of our current setup. Are you concerned we might grow abusers at some point?

Some maintainers want this, and I think that will be fine in the future. I don't really care much either way, because I've never seen any intentional abuse, and if someone commits something wrong to one of my projects I can simply revert it... which is very rare. But GitLab makes it easy to lock down permissions, and I hope we don't do that right away, when our build system is still very fragile and waiting for maintainers to approve build fixes is undesirable.
