Another quick heads up.

   - I am basically stopping (or rather not posting) the reviews when there
   are no findings.
   - If there are updates from the author, the review will be triggered. To
   minimize the cost, I am not setting the effort as max but rather trigger
   multiple times whenever the author pushes a newer commit.
   - I am looking especially through P3 review comments or not. Please let
   me know if you guys are getting too many P3 nits, and if that bugs you.
