The way I've heard it articulated (and makes sense to me) is that a 2nd
committer skimming a contribution to make sure everything looks reasonable
should be sufficient. It's a touch more rigor than we do now (1 contrib + 1
committer) without slowing things down too much. If we can develop a
healthy relationship with git revert on the project as well, this model
should further be de-risked.

Also, on my personal docket is for us to discuss how one becomes a
committer and charting that course in the near future, so hopefully we'll
see our committer pool expand in diversity and count to make this less of a
burden.
