Correct.  And the burden should not be on any RM to decide either what
bug fixes go in or not either... that is asking way too much (i.e.
everyone has their own areas of expertise). The burden of decisions
continues to be on the committer, and if they are in doubt, they
should consult the larger dev community.

If a commit will cause the RM extra work (i.e. another respin or
whatever), then it seems appropriate to ask if they are willing to do
so.
As Mark pointed out earlier, a RM has no official power - they have
simply volunteered to do the grunt work of turning out release
candidates, etc.  It doesn't even have to be a single person - a group
could collaborate to get everything necessary done.
