I don't see any objections on that thread. You're a committer and have
reviews from other knowledgeable people in this area. Do you have any
reason to believe it's controversial, like, changes semantics or APIs? Were
there related discussions elsewhere that expressed any concern?

>From a glance, OK it's introducing a new idea of state schema and
validation; would it conflict with any other possible approaches, have any
limits if this is enshrined as supported functionality? There's always some
cost to introducing yet more code to support, but, this doesn't look
intrusive or large.

The "don't review your own PR" idea isn't hard-and-fast. I don't think
anyone needs to block for anything like this long if you have other capable
reviews and you are a committer, if you don't see that it impacts other
code meaningfully in a way that really demands review from others, and in
good faith judge that it is worthwhile. I think you are the one de facto
expert on that code and indeed you can't block yourself for 1.5 years or
else nothing substantial would happen.
