Looks good, but there is a scenario which worries me a bit.

It happened in the past times that an otherwise good and working patch
failed the tests because, for example, pep8 or pyflakes became stricter
about the code formatting.

Can the maintainer override such a -1 from failed tests in that case?
(probably yes, but worth asking)

Thanks,
